Front yard update, finished off the fence today (good fences, good neighbours, etc.) which pretty much wraps the front yard. Overgrown bushes are gone, weed infested grass gone, plants, greenhouse and fence installed.

COVID has fucked off enough that the in-laws are coming back over the holidays. We ripped apart the second bathroom hours after we owned the house to ditch the polyb, then covid fucked us so it’s been down for the count the last 24 months. I’ve spent the last couple weeks chiseling out the tile and mortar, over the next week we will be building everything back and likely finishing the laundry room.

Aside from some silicone and touch up paint, laundry room and guest bath are successfully renovated, lots of lessons taken away for our master bath Reno in 2023, and I need a break until then lol.
