Another day of work. Home work. Days at home are busy trying to get the place squared away. Certain chores piled up while we were gone, maintenance jobs like painting, chaulking, weeding, bush trimming all pile up. Then there are the chores that are required to make this place more the way we would prefer. We replaced a door in our master bedroom with bifold one that takes up a whole lot less space and aloows us full access to the closet. We have to wait two weeks for two more bi-fold doors from Home Depot because one size is a special order. The final results will be worth it.
The front door got a second coat of shiny black paint today and it is slowly drying as I type this. Oil paint takes 6-8 hours to dry but it supposed to be much more durable than latex.
I also bought a drip irrigation kit so that I could cover the plants on the east side of our house. They are looking a bit dry right now. The previous owner did not use the existing inground system so it has needed some repairs and some tweeking (and still needs more) to function properly. Luckily drip irrigation is not rocket science so I think I succeeded. I will go out tonight when the system cycles on and check it. ( Fingers crossed.)
