Checklist update

Here's how I'm doing against my checklist:

1. Finish moving pebbles from the back triangle to the utility side of the house.

Hmm..not yet. Maybe today.

2. Move pebbles in shade garden to the other side of the house.

Again, not yet. Something about moving rocks hasn't appealed to me much...

3. Decide on a paint color for the door.

I have paint chips up, but no decisions yet. I'm not even sure I like any of these colors. I'm thinking.


4. Clean the patio furniture.

Done. It is supposed to rain for the next three days, so it might have to be done again. I got this stuff at Target on clearance last year and it's amazing for cleaning. Works super well!


5. Get some plants for my front porch pots.


Done!




6. Figure out a strategy for containing the shade garden.

I'm just going to use plastic landscape edging for a clean look. I've found some instructions here.


7. Power wash deck- if we can get a power washer!

We are thinking about hiring a neighborhood kid who appears to have a business going using his dad's power washer.
