| The patio chronicles |
|
Yesterday was Doctor day. I got some good news, two out of three of the 'markers' have gone into remission. I have one holdout.
I am very lucky to have gotten sick when I did, sounds odd, but the medication I take is just recently out of clinical trials, I would be SOL if it had not been available to me. It is expensive, $3,500.00 A month. Thank God again, for my insurance, which covers it. One of the ironies of life, I got this insurance only two months before getting sick.
All in all, I will endure the side effects for a longer gig here with my family.
I am putting that patio in, I used a transit to set the level, my small John Deere tractor to scrape the ground clean. My wife sighs, and rolls her eyes. It isn't a large space. She would have raked it and placed the pavers. See? There is the difference, she is 'paying' for quality here.
Next I have to make a cover for this, bargain time again. She wants to have a romantic space, with what looks like curtains for sunshade.
I want to roof this, done, end of story, bring in the outdoor furniture, enjoy. We will see....pictures will follow when done.
