This is the giant dog bed that T took outside to sleep in.😂 After the craziness of Deck week, we have really enjoyed our time relaxing! In fact, we haven't been in a hurry to do much of anything other than just normal chores, working out, and watching way too much tv in our recliners. Yes, we all have our own recliners. Unfortunately, I have been dealing with a horrible ear infection. Actually, it was probably a horrible ear infection last month, but thanks to a lifetime of ear infections, getting tubes put in multiple times, and ear drums being ruptured I have so much scar tissue that I can no longer feel when I am getting an ear infection. This time I think my ear drum ruptured before I finally noticed. I basically have had no ability to hear anything in my left ear and only about 5o% in my right, which was a lot better than last time when they both ruptured and I was completely deaf for over a month while they healed. I have about 75% hearing in my left ear now and about 90% ...
It was slow, tedious, and back killing, but after 2 days and 2 coats we FINALLY finished! It was a long, long weekend! I started my deck project on good authority that there was absolutely no rain or cold weather in the forecast for the next two weeks. I was about halfway into the project when I learned rain was expected in 5 days. I need 48 hours for the deck to cure before it gets wet. That only left us with 2 full days, sun up to sun down, to finish said project. I will say that 1.) we did finish, 2.) it was literally all day long for mostly two full days, 3.) the project just about completely broke us and 4.) I absolutely love it! It looks so much better! It definitely doesn't look brand new, but it looks 1000 x better than it did. I will say that while I was doing crazy manual labor all day long for a week that I can't remember EVER sleeping so well! I would literally lay down in bed at about 8pm and almost immediately go to sleep. I would only get up a couple of times...
