A sun room of sorts, except it wouldn't get much sun. Only thing is I know that if I brought the matter up, VH would come up with all sorts of Great Ideas for ways to make it Really Cool (read: time-consuming, expensive, and not at all what I'd envisioned) ... and I'd never get a sun room OR a deck built.

Now I have no deck. :( But I love the new room! I've been after my husband for months to replace the kitchen faucet as he was the only one with the "combination" to turn off the water with it. Finally on Friday I insisted he buy a new faucet and our son in law helped him install it after my husband cut his thumb with a knife while trying to cut a plastic tie from something. Took five stitches. Yuck! Welcome back. I solved my broken deck problem by building a room where it was. Now I have no deck. :( But I love the new room!

I've lost track. But as for the burrowing creatures, they weren't interested in the area near the creek. Not with our tomato garden providing such a handy all-they-can-eat buffet.

You've hit the Big Time! But even that couldn't lure me into helping build a deck. Sorry, my friend. They’re selling TaB there now, huh? You’ve hit the Big Time!

Then I felt like dog poo when I gained them back. But there's no photo on my hard drive featuring my kick-boxing bod. Might be on someone <em>else's</em> hard drive, but since I still have an excellent right cross I doubt anyone will ever see that pic. Well, yes I did.
