Rainy Days and Sundays

We have had two solid days of rain in southwest Florida.  Luckily we have no company now so its just us having to put up with sitting inside and watching old movies and napping.  The dogs are ok with it, in fact they have the napping down pretty good.

The pool at the other house is about 99 percent done, there are a few details to work out and then we have our inspection which we are hoping to pass.  It has taken almost four months to complete and we have learned a lot along the way, we should have it down by the time we are on our fifth one.

We decided to use pavers around the pool this time instead of cement and were able to use the extra pavers for sidewalks so nothing went to waste.

Trees were delivered this past week and planted to eliminate some of the late afternoon sun that we will have to deal with once we move in.  The trees almost make the backyard look complete and it is so nice to sit back there and listen to the breeze in the palms, at least that's what I remember before the rain moved in this week.

The more we get done the more we want to get over there; there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day or enough energy.  I am working on collecting items for the house which takes a lot of  my time on the Ipad, I still have lots to get but at least I can sit on the couch and find it.

Now its time for another old movie to start, the dogs are dreaming of chasing geckos and I'm dreaming of the sun shining again.  Margaret
