$110 dollar to make you holla!


that's my patio
and
that's a new bamboo couch I got on craigslist
did it cost $110?



no
but it would have been a good deal if it did



no, $110 is what I netted on craigslist this weekend  homies!
I sold my double stroller for $150
which was decent I thought
since I bought it on eBay for $350
5 years ago


so now I need to figure out how to weatherproof the $40 couch
any ideas?
some day... new cushions with marine grade foam and Sunbrella
for now maybe a clear coat of something
and hauling the cushions inside
and using a big tarp

the patio is slowing coming together
last year it looked like this


 those blocks with the grass between them
were sitting on top of this nastiness
I am pretty proud of how we recycled them




the ugly before


in progress



$0 budget renos take a long time

ps which way do you like the cushions?

peace out

At my house today













We are looking at annuals at one of my favorite places, the Tonkadale Garden shop.












There were so many choices, I got overwhelmed and left with nothing or I could have spent $500.


















































Now we are hanging in the shade as it is almost 90 degrees.


























































ok truth in blogging, this was yesterday.  today I am at working (blogging.)
