More Hard Work on This Day Off, Yeah Right!

Well, I am almost finished for the day. I have been to the compost place twice. The second time was with the Palo Verde tree stump. See it is gone! And so is the fence between our house and the Jacksons! Chuck came out and asked if we were going to be moving since we were doing all of this clean up. Mom assured him that we were not. He said, "Yeh, that is what the Prince family said too. Now see where they are living. They are living in La Terraza, one of the gated communities off Cherokee going down toward the Stake Center. Well, do you want to take another look at the yard without the fence. Here it is! Kinda different huh. Yep!, I gave all the fence away to Brother Borquez. He helped me for about four hours this morning. He is without a regular job so I am trying to get some things done around the house and provide a little income for him. Oh, there is a Yucca plant at the left edge of the picture. Now you see it, now you don't!Well, I guess you still see it, but it is down for the count and as soon as I finish this post to our blog, it will be going into the trailer, waiting for the next trip to the compost pile. Then I will be spending the rest of the afternoon and evening in my comfy chair in front of the TV. Hope everybody had a good day!

Tony, Leave some work for your son-in laws to do!! My dad just got done with fixing up their house in Denver... he took two weeks of leave to clean it up, put in new floors ect... and he also helped my uncle recover from his emergency surgery. Anyway, today was a lazy day... I played basketball with the Elders Quorum at the church, (Amy and Andrew Came along too, and then we went to lunch at Wendys. Amy went shopping with the other gals there, and I got to hang out with Andrew. Hope that you all are doing great... we'll see you soon!!! Jake, Amy and Andrew Q

Lookin' good, Dad! Now you just need a new wall along the back yard. I guess it's a good thing I'm moving back to SV this summer so I can help you with that like I did with the side wall. Mom will just be forced to spend time with her grandkids so I can help you...I'm sure she'll be so sad about that...not! If we start on it right after the family reunion before Jake goes to training, then he can help too.

wowee daddy-o! you sure have been working hard out there...between the cactus being down in the back and the fence and tree being gone in the front, we might think we're lost when we pull up! but it really looks good. Poor Chuck...thinking he's losing neighbors on both sides. You're such a good example of hard work!
