If this is in the garage, looks like a great spot for tools, DIY supplies, outdoor gear, etc., as applicable to you.
That’s the way to make big changes: Make a small change here, and a small change there, and with time, eventually you find you’ve improved the whole place.
That is way better than nice!
Yes, and it’s absolutely lovely to watch things slowly coming together—yesterday, we broke down an old aerated concrete grill, removed a flagpole (so far, the most securely fastened thing I’ve found around the house), cemented in a rotary clothes dryer instead, and scrapped an old wooden deck that used to partially encircle a pool (the pool we’d already removed shortly after moving in). All pretty small changes, but the yard looks twice as big now!
Thank you!
Four things in a single day, and you call that small? Wow. That would take me a week, at least. Or two, with the right excuses. Congratulations!
Eh, I’ve sometimes gotten that much done around the house… when there was something really important for work or school that I was supposed to be doing instead, and which I was procrastinating.
Well, it was me and my wife, and really, the main goal was just to get the clothes dryer set up, everything else was just in the way… And we’d been procrastinating on that for a while. Also…
…this was definitely a factor, too.
