Good evening. We are home from a day of sweaty fun at the villages. Mark worked on the shower stall. He had to cut more studs for the bathroom wall that backs onto the laundry room. Of course things had to be notched everywhere, but he is very meticulous with his measurements and it looks great. Then, the rubber membrane had to be installed and then the Dura rock. He ran out of Dura rock, and we will have to go and get one more sheet. Darn, but you never like to buy more than you need. (Actually, I think he was going to buy four sheets and I said you’ll need six. Well, it turns out seven will be the lucky number. Ha ha.)
While Mark was working on the shower, I spent my day outside in the Florida heat. Oh I came in now and again to cool down and drink some water. There were layers upon layers of old mulch that had created a hump in the middle of the large planting area. Six bags later, it’s starting to look level, well not level, but not as “humpy!” Two rose bushes that had been on the east side of the house were not doing well … not enough sun. So I dug holes and transplanted them! Hopefully they’ll do better. Aside from that, I planted two new yellow daisy type plants like the K’s currently have and like.
Cute eh! They’ll take awhile to settle in but will get a couple of feet tall and fill out nicely.
See the yellow flowers on the right > … that’s adult size. We’re moving the boulders around. 😂 The beast is hundreds of pounds. We’ve got it jacked up … going to flip it next trip then pressure wash it. Big plans to finish up the doorway garden soon.
Back home Mark cooked up a pork loin for dinner … it was the best! I liked it. 😋
Now it’s Advil and TV time 😂
