THE GREENHOUSE IS GETTING BETTER

We worked on the greenhouse this Memorial Day weekend. Andy came over and roofed it for us.

We decided we needed a professional roof so we stayed on the ground and handed Andy what ever he needed.

We all think it came out great. It will help keep the greenhouse cooler in the summer and hold the heat in the winter.

The plants are getting bigger because we have a garden Gnome living in the greenhouse to help us.

We have two planters built so far. We hope to build the other two on Monday.

Stephen has been working around the clock planting new plants.

We even have a fish pond. We are raising gold fish, koi and polliwogs that will be bullfrogs soon. There are several kinds of water plants and a fountain powered by a solar panel on the roof.

I FINALLY QUIT

After all the work I put into my truck after the accident, the transmission went out.

Stephen, Danny and I worked for a day and a half to get the transmission out.

Stephen and I walked through two salvage yards looking for a replacement transmission and found nothing that would fit my truck. On the way home I snapped. I was done with fixing my cars every weekend so I could get to work. I QUIT!

Two days later we bought this 2009 Kia Spectra. It only had 8,000 miles and was still under factory warranty. WHAT'S A FACTORY WARRANTY?
