Just because we aren't blogging doesn't mean we aren't working

It is fun to write a post to share a finished project, or a big work day when we got a lot done.  Right now, we just have a lot of unfinished projects that are not fun to write about.
Les is working on the floors. He began last week sanding and refinishing the hardwood floors in the living room and front bedroom. He will report on that project when he completes it. For now, I will just say it is a long process.
Remember our beautiful, finished kitchen? Well, this is how it looks now. All the furniture from the front rooms had to go somewhere. 
And, this is our bedroom. 

After we tore the walls down, we ended up with a huge pile of rocks. Les used some to outline a flower bed in the front, and I began a walkway with some. 
 

We had found out that a lot of the plants growing in rows are garlic. So, Les has been harvesting garlic.
 
Of course, there is the yard. we brought some dirt up to fill in holes in the front, which could use some weed and feed.
Then, there's the back...clear brush, trim trees, clean out trash, tear apart old barb wire fencing...haul  limbs to burn pile, haul trash to landfill, haul metal to recycle...again and again...
 





 
 can we say long-haul...perseverance...stick with it...determination...don't grow weary...stay focused...never give up...
