playset building

Recently the fence the people came and showed us where our property line was, showed us that the previous owners grossly overestimated where their property ended. There is a sprinkler head in the neighbors lawn, half of the playset (as seen below, the yellow rope shows the property line) and the horse shoe pits are on our property but you can't stand next to them anymore with the fence there. lovely!















so then we moved the playset and it literally folded over as we moved it, all dryrotted. i think the people we bought the house from laughed when we asked for the playset. we've been working on a new one and just need a couple more eyebolts and a tarp for the roof and its done.

woah...too long

I haven't posted in forever... but my excuse is valid, i've been busy. Started my new job. Its so strange, i've worked in manufacturing my whole career and this place a transactional, credit card company. soooo different, but some things the same. its an 'open' atmosphere, meaning everyone has a laptop, its all wireless and no set desks. so i have to bring everything home every night, that's not so fun. its pretty crowded in my area too so i have about 3 feet by 3 feet tabletop and that's it- no desk drawer, no filing cabinet, no shelf to put my frames or calendars.  There are alot of perks though, starbucks, chik fil a, sushi, all on campus. its too bad i started weight watchers the week i started working. Last week there was a snack cart that came around one day, and a breakfast sandwich cart the next day- all free mind you. its pretty plush compared to previous working environments, oh and the hours are 9-5! the job is not exactly as described, but i think i can get used to this. ha ha
meanwhile back on the home front grammy and grampy came to babysit for the week...here are some classic pictures.
