House Project

 While we knew that the side of our front porch was having some issues, ...

... we didn't realize it was this bad underneath:

Ack.  Termites (who were gone before we bought the house), then carpenter bees, and then water damage.  Ack x 3!  Ugh, houses, amiright?  

Here is how it looks this afternoon after nearly six days of contractors pounding on the house.  Happily, we now have a nice outdoor space.

Moment of Zen/ Happy New Years


Phew, 2021 is not starting off being any different than 2020.  Crazy COVID-19 rates and political strife simply add to the anxiety of these times.  

I'm grateful for the bits of sunshine -- physical and mental -- that peek into our world, and I am so grateful for the relative security that surrounds us.
