Well, spring is upon us here in the Pacific Northwest and slowly feels like summer. This time of year the fact that we don't have a ceiling doesn't matter, because the house stays cool enough and warm enough. The temperature, thankfully, doesn't fluctuate much. Once we get the ceiling in and everything insulated we should be fine. Last summer we ROASTED, and as you know we froze over the winter.
Anyway, this weekend marks the anniversary of the destruction of the family room. I can't believe it! We've done so much and made tons of progress, but at the same time I wish we were farther.
I have more stuff to write about later, but for now I want to talk about our lawn. We had to mow it a couple of weeks ago. Thankfully our wonderful neighbor offered us his lawnmower. The one we inherited with the house, which is a Toro that looks fairly new, is in the shop. But I digress. Take a look:

What you see is what appears to actually be a lawn. That green, fuzzy patch is the earth that we so painstakingly tilled, rolled, seeded, etc. It looks better in the pics than it does in real life; it's still a bit patchy when you look straight down at it. But that's not the point- it's an actual lawn, and we love it. Now all we have to do is make the rest of the yard look like that and we'll be golden. Heh.
