Finally

WE DID IT, although we knew putting the siding up on the back n sides would be hard because the sheets are so heavy! BUT, we got it up...a lot of cursing,  one busted thumb, one ugly hematoma and  finally it was up!! 






I now have an enclosed and dry shed!! Also a good spot for the mower,  and even tho its a bit smaller than my old shed it will be perfect.  Small means I have to organize my junk! I still have all the odds n ends necessary for a full time DIY'er like myself.

               

          my work table, left over paints, coffee cans of nails, screws, and odds n ends

               


                                                 the mowers, my bike, and other must haves

I wanted sliding doors but the hardware was sooo expensive.  I had these hinges so we used them instead! We did have to close up the opening a little more than I wanted to...but it's still big enough for the mower to fit without any problems. 




  I had several years of SC license plates so I hung them alongside my potting table and garden hand tools



I had the final appt, with the DR so finally I've been sitting down with my maps and getting a feel for what I can expect in the way of places to camp when I head to TX this week.
My budget has taken such a hit with the damned water pump on the van, some new tires and a tie rod...and the medical bills...so I may end up hitting some Camp Walmarts, I don't like urban camping, but it's free, especially during the getting there and back portion. I'll go across GA, AL, MS, LS, and then into TX. 
 I don't know how long I will be traveling.  I hate leaving my sis with everything to do, especially since Mom fell yet again and broke her right wrist the very next week after being released from the left arm break! 

Unless you can sit by her 24/7, which we try but it's impossible to do, she will get up and move from room to room...and this time it was the same type thing as before. She got up went into the kitchen but went back in the living room for some reason, and left the walker in the kitchen.  She fell!! We don't want to put her in a NH but she is making it very difficult. 
The day before she fell we all went to Congaree National Park, and we had a great walk around. 



                     
                                             Jimmy,  big sis, me, mom,  and lil sis

She did not look this cute when we rushed into the house (we were in the yard when we heard her fall) Floss is showing you how we found mom...
