Winter is coming to a close

However, it is not soon enough for me. I really am happy that the cold weather seems to be letting go it’s hold of us. Not that we wont have more later, but for now a few nice days are definitely a plus. I think I will do a little yard work. There are a few projects that I would to get started on before spring arrives.

I am going to build a new green house for a crop of Orchids. I love Orchids and I plan to try my hand at growing them this year. I have always wanted a small green house to grow delicate blooms like that in, so I will build it myself. I found a bunch of different ways to build one with used materials and be totally green. No pun intended. *smiles*

New tile for the guest bathroom

My youngest sister has come to stay with me for a few days so we can get started on another project for more home improvement here at my house. I have been planning on putting new tile in my spare or guest bathroom for a year now, and the time has come.

I need something durable, since when my nephews are here, they use that bathroom, and I have to say that even though they are great kids…well…they are boys. They really don’t pay much attention to decor and tidiness.

My sister and I have gone to home renovation stores and on line to learn as much as we can about laying down tile, and installing new lights, towel bars, and also a vanity. This should be rather interesting to see how it is going to turn out If it doesn’t work out like we want it to, at least we can say we tried, while calling a professional.
