garage project.

my husband has been hard at work this weekend. he was determined to clean his garage. i had no clue until we were home owners that my husband was particular about his garage, but i guess that's the one space that is all HIS, and he loves it! my cousin, ron, who is a great carpenter came over yesterday in the early morning to help him measure it out, make a list of supplies and get started. i think ryan had great intentions of "helping" with the project... but ron is good. ron set to work and in about 4 hours ryan had a work bench and great shelves. ryan spent all of today putting things where he wanted them and organizing the rest of the garage. hanging things on the walls to get stuff off the floor and making sense of all the little gadgets that go into a garage. he's quite proud of himself and if i do say so myself... it looks great!


the start of the project...
the finish product! he has storage above, storage inside and storage below. plus pegboard on the back for hanging the "everyday" tools as he calls them!



all in all i'd say they did a great job, and tonight... we're parking in the garage!

being new home owners there are always "projects" to be done. the past few weekends as the weather has been getting nicer those projects have been outdoors. ryan usually digging, planting, pulling, weeding, mowing or sweeping and me... well, i photograph it all. it's the part i enjoy. and this last weekend as i felt i should get dirty and dig a little he consistently asked me " you want me to do that?" so i'm guessing i either looked way out of my element or i wasn't doing it "right". i'll stick to the photographs or maybe i'll sleep in next time. :) i enjoy my role. our herbs are begining to sprout this week. we're still debating on the garden. we were all go this weekend and then stopped to figure out how to get rid of the grass that is where we want the garden. when we couldn't come up with a "simple solution" we opted out of the garden and bought flowers for the front yard. now i think we have a solution so we migh

Tales From the Gym

That's one weird blog title, so let me fill you in... I started the Couch to 5K running program awhile back, remember? Well, I sucked at it. I can't run. It worked me to death and it never got easier. The whole push yourself each time and it will get easier and then you'll increase your running increments until you build up your stamina... yea none of that happened. I did week one like 8 times and I still wanted to die. The thought of increasing my running time made me want to stab myself in my eye. Not to mention that I'm apparently some sort of 29 year old going on 60 because OH.MY.JOINTS! My hips, my knees & my ankles cursed me daily. I loved the way I felt when I was done, but it was the getting there that just about killed me. So one day we didn't run and you know how that goes... one day turned into two months and then it wasn't spoke of again. Hubs and I had to sit down and have a heart to heart one day about getting into shape. We both needed it BAD.
