Saturday Chores

There is something so satisfying about Saturday chores I tell you. Especially when you finally get a weekend to really dig right in. That’s how we felt last weekend.

You see, this happened:

Can you see the back of that wall falling off below that bridge? Yes, it had some problems and a guy was trying to fix it but the whole thing fell right into the pool.

Yep, it looked like this:

And the bottom of the pool looked like this:

Which necessitated an impromptu scuba adventure.

I mean, we hadn’t been scuba diving in way too long. Ha!

That guy removed all that junk. Pretty awesome.

Meanwhile Lu and I got our Thankful Tree off to a good start:

And I finished off my flower garden I had been working my tail off to get shaped up.

We had some watering problems we had to dig in and fix, so it went from this to this:

To this:

Oh I sure hope those puppies will grow!

I also installed these new lights in the game room on our special wall:

…with my brother’s help while wearing a headlamp trying to get instructions from him on FaceTime. Thank you Josh!!

And last but not least, we finally, after ten years of a very problematic shower floor, got it redone.

Ok, *we* did not do this, but we were sure good cheerleader supports for this awesome guy who came and did it for us.

Hooray!

Phew. That felt good. Now let the real races begin for wrapping up all the Thanksgiving/Turkey Trot prep this weekend.

Happy weekend everyone!
