Now I Just Need Stuff to Put in It

I finally have a place to live. Thank Heavens. I am so sick of looking at lousy rental properties. This one is pretty nice, though. It's a house. Here it is:

Look! TWO garage doors. For TWO vehicles to go in. Two. That's more than one. Pretty nifty, huh? The one on the right even has a garage door opener. I could open and close that thing all day...



Simple minds, simple pleasures.



Here is the back porch. There's a toad living in it. He has a little hole in the little strip of garden inside the porch. When I watered the flowers there, he hopped out and went looking for a bush to hide under. Luckily for him there is something dark purple and leafy in there, too. I don't have a picture of him. On account of the dark purple leafy stuff being in the way.


This is the backyard. Being watered. I watered the lawn. How very growed up of me. I have never had to water a lawn on my own before. It occurred to me at this point that I really have no idea how to do it. Yes, I have a pretty good grip on the basic concepts involved, but the actual application thereof is a little lost on me.

Gravel doesn't require watering.

  1. Mazel Tov! That's a very nice-looking place, Juli...furthermore, there are those of us (well, ME) who believe earnestly that your toad is a good fellow and his presence denotes tranquility in your home. May peace and delight, laughter and comfort take up residence with you! (And the garage door opener? That is just COOL!)

  2. Looks nice...yes, you will find all that lovely green stuff has to be cut, trimmed, whacked, watered, raked, pulled, poisoned, etc. repeatedly. It can be a mixed blessing sometimes.

    And by the looks of things you are not expecting 8 inches of snow tomorrow like we are.

    I am jealous you have a bigger garage than I do.
