we built a porch!

new porch in progress

Well, most of a porch. It has a foundation and a floor. We can walk out the back door without fear of falling in a hole full of ancient cigarette wrappers and alley cat poop (I raked all that up, too).

It is a lovely porch-floor.

You can lie down on it without getting a splinter or a nail in your arse.

Cranky old lady kitties like it too.

(How sweet is our neighbour’s porch addition with its yellow siding and little aluminum awnings? I love those awnings, and wish we had them on our house).

Coming soon, supports! for the roof! which still potentially could fall down although I believe that it will not. Also, stairs. Sorry, Stacie, no slide. It’s just not in the budget for this year.

That is FANTASTIC!! (especially the cranky old lady kitty. and the lack of arse-splinters).

Okay, that’s just hawt as hell! I love men with hammers and girls with tattoos!

Oh, and the porch looks great too.

Porch looks great! While I’m sad about the lack of slide, perhaps I could convince you to install some sort of James Bond-esque flattening stairs contraption? It’s LIKE a slide. :)
