Better than dirt!

 So, the siding guys are back fixing the side of the house and small areas. If you have been following my blog, they had a patter up the side of the house, only on one side. That didn't look bad, but bc it wasn't on any  other side of the house, well, I just wasn't going to have that now was I. 
 Drive way is down, I sure wish they had made more of a diagonal walk way, the straight curve look is weird, but it's poured and voila. Everything is getting done.
 No pattern, not pretty either, but no pattern and therefore when we sell, there won't be that odd discussion will there.

 Here today!
 Gone the next.
Although, our yard is half the size the saleswoman and man led us to believe, we will just have to go with it. You would think they would know where to start walking with the property lines by now, but no. Oh well. Kids have plenty of places to play outside the fenced in yard I guess.
 Cover is in and is now filled.
 Sidewalks are down too, and well we drove by Sunday and there was someone walking down our driveway. I guess it is customary for everyone to check out the houses being built if the doors are unlocked and peek in the windows if they are. 
 Dirt is smoothed and ready for landscapers. They even found a bigger second rock.

 This area needs to be taken up and so does that one. Please don't just lay sod over it. Nope they just tore it up and reused that dirt to fill in holes. Oh well. Recycling is usually good I guess, just hope yucky grass doesn't grow back in my good grass.

 They planted a big tree in my yard without asking. I didn't know they would plant one. Who plants a huge tree blocking the beautiful view. Certainly not me. But I held my tongue and didn't ask them to move it 2 ft to the right. I mean it is in front of the far window, but. still. Uhh anyways.

 I did however, after much thinking tell Cliff to tell the manager when he met him at 4 pm to remove these dead looking bushes from both sides of the garage. I know they are not in bloom now, but I don't want anything that could scratch the cars or well more important looks dead and not in season now or well all year round. They said they would plant two green bushes but couldn't guarantee year round greenness. Oh well.

 Is it just me our should there be symmetry. I mean why plant one tall bush on one side and not the other. I know I am so picky.


Another tree that well looks kinda like a weeping willow like tree. We will have to see how it does. All in all. It looks definately better than dirt.
