Been getting a lot done lately, on top of full time nursing work, on-call just about every weekend, and driving Door Dash/Uber Eats on the way home...
This week, I built a French drain to drain our driveway which catches all the rain runoff from our yard. Unfortunately, I done have a before photo. 5 hours after I finished, my 18yo son drove off the driveway over the grate. Thankfully he didn't break it, but I put a cinder block in the way so he doesn't do it again. Teens 🤦
Then, with the weather coming, and because of a Hawk that took out one of my free range hens, I built an enclosed run/greenhouse for them. I just need to connect the run to the mobile coop. In the spring, I hope to use it to start some plants.
I also had to enclose a screened in porch with plastic to prevent my plumbing from freezing. This was an addition that one of the previous owners installed, but we've had issues with the pipes freezing in the ceiling of that room. So, as a temporary fix, until we're ready to hard scape the room, I put a double layer of plastic over the whole exterior.
