before house painting afterthought.
getting house painted while on vacation and at last minute before leaving, i realized we don’t have any good “before” pictures! no time to get all 4 sides.
outside house painting is (finally) happening!
our 100 year old stucco has needed paiting and repairs for 10 years and for past five Kris has waited as I said “oh I’ll do it next summer” while prioritizing building a sauna, chicken coop and treehouse movie theater.
so now kris made it a priority to get someone else is painting the house which is probably for the best anyway 🙂
now we’re under the gun to pick a color, have looked at dozens of samples on the house AND NOW IT’S THE VERY LAST DAY TO MAKE A DECISION!
decisions were decided but we went with a tricky blue and we’re still not 100% sure it’s the “right” blue!
WHATEVER! CAMO CARGO SHORTS ARE AWESOME!
CAMO CARGO SHORTS ARE AWESOME BECAUSE YOU CAN FIT LOTS OF STUFF IN THE POCKETS AND BLEND IN WITH SHRUBS WHILE PAINTING! YOU CAN PRY THEM FROM MY COLD, DEAD HANDS!!!
( just contributing my 2 cents to the cargo shorts controversy. they’re actually my ironic came cargo shots. or maybe i just want everyone to believe they’re my ironic cargo shorts and i really like them. even i can’t tell. )
bartering for straw, wisco style.
two bales of straw for The Girls in exchange for a pabst blue ribbon seems like a fair trade.
day 4417: the treehouse movie theater showing of star wars, the force awakens!
saw star wars: the force awakens with odin and some of his friends. the way our summers work this might be one of the last movies we get to see on the treehouse deck this year?! crazy! so we have to make the most of it while we can.
you can’t have a movie without some candy!
kris: “can you get some candy for the treehouse movie? but don’t get too much.”
me: “okaaaaaaay”
infinite jest.
the fact that “infinite jest” is exactly the right size to get proper projection on the 11 foot treehouse movie theater screen will never not amuse me.
