I started a new job. I wasn’t trained and walked into a mess. Instead of letting it roll of my shoulders and not say anything about my frustrations I voiced every concern I had and let everyone know. When the manager came to me after she heard from other people how disgusted I am I told her and showed her everything. At first she tried to powder coat some things but then realized better and is going to
Make sure higher standards are set. I can not tell you how awesome I feel setting these boundaries straight out the gate. I have to laugh because I really shoved it back into them . They thought they could treat me like that they were sooo wrong.

I think the problems in my flower room have been because my piranha poster had fallen down. Put it back up today.

Got it in Sicily, come to find out the girls in the show had been abducted and forced to do the show. The "ringmaster" was arrested and put in jail years later.

I have seen this woman feeding deer in her front yard a few times now...Got a quick pic today. I thought it was fake at first....and as you see she lives in town, on a busy street. I do know deer love birdseed! The other say she was sitting on that swing on her porch and it was right next to her.

A really nice touch is using backplate protectors under your hardware, and not only do they look great, but they protect your cabinets and make them easier to clean. You know how you get fingerprints around the cabinet door nobs, and after a while it can damage the finish? They also make them larger for 2 hole style pulls.

Yeah the hardware makes such a difference.

Finally getting to work on the actual deck framing. I got some help finally. Got all the drainage in, road base under the deck and compacted in this morning. Started on the deck beams. Triple 2X12’s. Glued and nailed. 15 of them total.

The front and the back(much longer) is the same. Side loaded beams. The other side will be cantilevered over the beams which in my opinion is easier. Got those footings poured. Got the 6x6 pt posts here ready to cut. Easy peasy. Actual fun stuff for a minute minus the heat actually happy to get out of the house knowing i only have like a week of shit in there still to do and done
