Patio, Porch and Driveway Projects? Check!

Three long-planned home improvement projects have been completed. These were under the category of “when I physically feel better.” Last year’s successful hip surgeries opened the door to me feeling I could finally tackle such labor-intensive work. 

Here are before and after photos of the front porch and back patio painting projects. Preparations before painting involved cleaning and pressure washing the surfaces. Primer paint was also used on the patio.

Christmas Morning


It’s very early Christmas morning and all through the house…and outside…it is very quiet, as it should be. 

Soon the family will be up and the many gifts will be opened. But one gift is missing. Our younger son did not make it home from Chicago after testing positive for Covid two days ago. He says he feels fine, that it started with a cold. His brother came home with a cold but it seems to have run its course, but not before it passed on to me, apparently/allegedly. Son No. 1 did his second Covid test yesterday since being home. Both came back negative.
