Another weekend


It has been awhile since I posted.  Work has been pretty busy, but I thought I would show you the major work done on the barn.  We have officially gotten all the braces and ceiling joists up.  We are now ready for the rafters.  I again hit my limit this weekend.  We had to put in about 100 small screws.  Although I had an electric screw driver (not sure if that is their official name), but standing on a latter in limited space, I was again not strong enough to get them started.  John didn't want to drill a starter hole.  After about an hour of total frustration, I said 'screw that' (yes, I literally said that) and I started drilling the holes first.    But then I broke the bit, so, I had a melt down and went and worked in the garden.  And unfortunately for John, he had to finish all the screws.




Another proud moment was when I noticed our  potatoes have come up.  We had more torrential rain and we lost some of our greens and the eggplant, which John was very happy about.



What would a blog without pictures of the dogs.
