This is Mr. Fencer.  He’s a really sweet guy and he’s been very busy this week. He has finished one side fence and there’s three more to do.  He’s having to work around …

these guys.  The cementers have the foundations for the shed done, and now the driveway is being completed. The framing guy comes Monday to set the “garaport” up. This will not only provide a shelter for the dogs, but a shelter for the Scout AND a workspace for Chris.

So our renovations are slowly coming together.  I’ve picked out trees and plants, for the most part.  And as you can see, this place is hot and dry, so we’ll need plants to suit this weather and drought conditions.

(This all brings back a sense of deja vu when Mom and Dad moved in to Cerritos.)

We’ve ‘made do’ with a Christmas tin on the post for the mailman.  It’s only for a few more days and we won’t have to worry about the weather.

So as every thing slowly comes together, I watch with anticipation.  My job will soon start.  I’m the “painter” lady.  Good thing I kept my ‘paintin’ clothes JUST for this occasion.
