Today was mowing day. That in itself is not a big deal, but after I finished I decided to get some things checked off my, always growing, to-do list. I have been needed to paint the window trim in the back of the house for so long. It’s just a task that isn’t my favorite. I washed down the house because it was dirty and then I got to scraping.

These are the original 1961 windows and they are a mess. I scraped off as much as I could. They were still wet from washing them. Tomorrow I’ll sand them and then give them a coat of paint so they’ll match the front of the house.

I had to caulk one window.

Trust me, they will look completely different when I’m finished.

I also went around with my vinyl tape and covered up all the holes in the siding. There were so many around this window.

I covered up 5 on this part and I swear, unless you knew where to look, you can’t see them.

Tomorrow we are going to have to cut down the Morning Glory vine because it has taken over the chicken coop.

I still cannot believe that the people behind us cut down these trees. Ours were not as big, but this is in my neighbors yard and I just love the flowers.

Another thing I got checked off was putting out the torch lights. I’m not sure if they are going to stay where they are, but they are off our patio table so that’s a plus.

I always said I’d be the crazy cat lady that wears weird clothes and walks on the beach. Ok, I don’t have a beach nearby, but the rest fits.

Let’s see how much I can get checked off tomorrow.
