Brick Project

Tuesday -- and it feels like it should be Weds, or Thursday!  It's been a long week.  Interminable, at times.  Work is a struggle.  I can do the job by myself IF there are no interruptions, or special projects.  But damn, they just don't give me a break very often.  It was actually pleasant working on the weekend, getting everything done on a timely basis -- and leaving at noon! 


This is the side yard that will be used for some drainage from the backyard when it rains during monsoon season.  My idea is that I will dig down 4-5 inches and fill it with crushed gravel rock, so that water has a place to sit as it drains away.  Much better than the huge mud puddle it creates just off my patio-- and sometimes all over the patio!

After a quick lunch of pulled pork nachos with guacamole and tapatio` sauce, I got in a short nap.  Definitely needed since I haven't been sleeping well.  After that, I got up and started on the brick project.  I picked up some bricks yesterday at Lowe's, and started setting them in place.  I figure I'm a third of the way done.   I might have gotten more done, if Sadie wasn't such a big hindrance.... errrr..... help *grin* 

But its coming along! 













There isn't any thing planned for this part of the bricks beside the river rock that is buried in parts of the yard --- except for the "treasured rocks" I pick up from time to time when I go places :)
