A skosh more progress


For those of you who, like me, always wondered how to spell "skosh", there you have it. I looked it up ;). Mom wanted to see pictures of the bathroom so here they are in all their splendor. As you can see Gavin feels the need to investigate every drawer in his path. And as you can see from the other picture, Brandon is fixin' to fix our toilet (or so we hope). It used to flush just once, then it graduated to twice, and now when you push down the handle it flushes a full three times. Not exactly a water-saver, unless you count the times that one person goes and flushes and then a second person goes and is done before the toilet is done flushing. Still - not ideal. So hopefully its the flushing mechanism and not the throne itself that's the problem. We spent a little time today buttoning up the patio area and the driveway. All the mulch and gravel and road base that got shoved around by the skiddy last weekend has been dealt with in one way or another. Now if we can just get the rest of the leaves raked before it snows....

Kinda looks like the chicken coop needs a paint job....Any volunteers?

Like he said, any volunteers?? We might just tackle that project next spring/summer :)

I can bring my paint cloths in early June!

Perfect! I think we might change the color to a powdery gray-blue to match our new shutters (if they ever come to put our new siding on which supposedly should be in the next few weeks). We'll paint the porch posts and the front door that same color.
