Last weekend, Dave, and our young friend, Andrew added lumber and bracing brackets to the pergola over the hot tub.
Late in the week, the contractors showed up to finish out the car port extension and install the new fence across the new end of the car port.
Then, yesterday, Dave removed the old chain link gates, and dug out the rotted tree stump that was in the way of the new covered parking spot.
The new carport area is now fully functional, and with the original bit of fence to the right, the house to the left, and the new stockade fence and gate at the end, whichever car gets parked in the new spot will be very well protected.
It will almost be like being in a garage.
Unfortunately, the exterior painting can't be done until we have 4 or so days of sunny, dry weather, and the rainy season just started.
It could be a while before we see the paint job being completed. That's now the only thing left.
Before and after pictures, well... after.
Oh and here are some pictures from the side shed rehab Dave and I did ourselves on March 26th.
My hair continued to fall out heavily over the past week, so the other night, I trimmed it short. A little TOO short in one spot when I held the trimmer at a bad angle. Oops. So then, I had to even things out, so now it looks like shit. OH well.
Hopefully, the falling out will stop over the next week or so, and regrowth will begin.
It's now been three weeks since my last treatment. This past week was my first without any appointments or any reason to go to the clinic. SO nice!
My sense of taste is almost back to normal, and the dry mouth is almost completely gone.
Fatigue remains an issue, but I have been doing my best to be active, taking walks and using home exercise options.
I also returned to dance class this past Monday night. It felt good, but looking at myself in the mirrored wall was a bit harsh.
I will get over it.
Cooking and staying in on a rainy day is what's ahead for me. Sounds lovely.
Hope you have a good day, too, Gentle Reader.
