I don't want to paint, says my man. I'm fed up with DIY. And I get it - a photo memory popped up from ten years ago where he was removing and installing a window at the old place, and he's still doing

Grain run this morning and I checked the other brewery in case as sometimes they don't tell me right away but there was none. I worked my ass off today but got the job done for my client. I am so sore

In a recent post, I mentioned accidentally mulching my neighbor's sprinkler head while I was taking care of her lawn when she went on vacation. I also fixed it. Here's how. Tools & Supplies Replacement

I'm lucky enough to have a very handy man around the place - Jamie'll build most things I have dreamt about. My chicken coop, various fences and gates, a polytunnel, a firebath , a gazebo - this really

I have to confess that this week this admin will be in Bali for a week, but she'll try to upvote and reblog when she isn't snorkelling or lounging by the pool admiring tropical Balinese garden landscapes.
