it was raining cats and dogs and chickens!

This morning I awoke to the sound of heavy rain. Real heavy rain. Like flood creeks in the area.

It was fun driving to work, hitting all those puddles. I didn't go over 35, even on the interstate, but it was still fun.

what a difference a day can make for the look of a house

The house has been in a not-good looking state for awhile. The front yard has been overgrown, the front bushes are being overgrown with vines/weeds/etc, the front flower bed looked sad, and the corner holly bushes were unkept at best.

Took Christine and I a day (most of yesterday afternoon and about an hour today finishing up) and the house looks 100000x better. Its like its not an abandoned house, but someone lives here!

And I've gotten the wood I need to build the shelves I need for my shot glasses, so they can be put away finally. The screen door has been mended, so it'll keep Kevin out as well as the door can be left open and keep Mindy in and pests out. I really should take some pictures, it looks good.
