We actually laugh a lot too about this .. once we do a RANT to blow off steam .. it isn't the deck company's fault but we are sure they will run screaming if they ever start one that seems like ours again ? haha<br />This is the same company that does landscaping and I have asked (early on in the game) if they would do what I want (very simple things) .. but who knows now since this is one huge headache for them ?

Hang in there; I'm sure you'll love it when it's all done. Maybe all that bedrock means you're earthquake proof? It always helps to look on the bright side, anyway.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-66606403710362177792009-04-30T15:57:00.000-04:002009-04-30T15:57:00.000-04:00Oh the joy when all is finished.

Hey ! You are getting new doors too ? Must be that kind of a year ? : )<br /><br />Hi Anna .. those are some of the smaller rocks they hit .. most are larger .. and YES ! my garden is not going to be up to snuff this year .. there is no way around it so I just have to calm down about it all... JEEZ !!! <br /><br />Hey kittnkitten .. yes ! out there it would be safer wouldn't it ? but here .. where blasting is going on in other parts of the city outskirts for more building .. well it runs through the bedrock and shakes this house and us in it ! haha<br /><br />Debbie ... if I say "groundhog day" will it give you the right idea of how I feel girl ?? LOL<br /><br />Gail ... I think Dave is totally disgusted (especially with the cracked mushroom bit .. the BW are not happy .. Winthrop can't have his 1st of the new month picture on the deck .... well it goes on and on ?) .. other than that it is another sunny day today ! : )<br /><br />Cindee ... I was so tired last night I fell face first on the bed .. nothing I usually do got done .. and yikes ! forgot the door picture .. it doesn't look that much different really more white edging .. fiberglass which means it will last longer than we will .. but all new wood trim which means I have to PAINT ! LOL<br /><br />Heather .. girl it is about time we get some sort of break for this right ? LOL<br /><br />Hello gittan .. that is too funny girl !
