A Deck!

July 15th, 2008

It’s so exciting to see the progress being made on our back porch/deck! We’ve been blessed with some gorgeous weather the last few days, so the contractors were able to get a lot done :-D

    Fun for the contractors, or us? :-) I love our back deck! It looks almost exactly like an observatory!

    Hey Andrew, I can’t comment on your blog (can you believe I still haven’t gotten a google account to do so? that’s because I’m thinking twice about getting one…), but I wanted to let you know that I read your blog all the time and love it! If you’re too busy to keep it up, that’s fine. Just know that you’ll be missed!

    For both of you…LOL building it looks like a lot of fun to me! Using it will be grand for y’all!

    Kasie, Thank you so much for letting me know what you are thinking! I will be posting to my blog soon!

    Hmm. How decky. I don’t really have anything profound to say…and I forgot what I was going to say anyways.

    Ah!

    ~”If one builds a deck, let him not fall from it’s edge.”

    And that especially applies to yours. It’s very high.

    !

    I am very very very very very very very very embarrased. Heh heh. If you can spot the horrendous typo in the last sentence, then I humbly apologise.

    And if not, it’s okay that you’re not grammatically objective like I am. That’s probably a good thing.

    @Andrew
    You’re welcome! I look forward to that next post of yours!

    @Justin
    Of course it’s high. I mean, after all, it is right over the edge of our rather steep hill. Just think what trouble we had before our deck was built, trying as we might to get up through the back door! Now we have a nice wide stairway; that’s the way I like things.

    Most comments aren’t grammatically correct anyway, and with that in mind I’m not grammatically objective at all!

    It looks great!! and yes…it does kind of look like an observatory!!

    also: great spot to take phony pics of people falling off of cliffs…

    Answer to Justin: I didn’t notice any grammatical errors…not that I am very good at grammar.

    Thanks Mrs. Delson! we certainly will enjoy it.

    You see Justin? Nobody eve notices. :-)

    LOL Good one Kasie!

    IM has killed us all. We don’t write to be read anymore. We write to do something else AFTER we are done writing. Anyways, I’ll take some time for a grammar lesson.

    It’s – CONTRACTION
    Its – POSESSIVE

    I mixed it up. Argh. Filled with shagrin.

  • Kasie

    July 16, 2008 at 3:49 pm

    Bingo! I see it! The reason why I didn’t beforehand is because you said it was your “last” sentence; and so naturally, I looked closely at your last sentence – not the quote, which was where your grammatical error was hiding. Never fear. If it bothers you that bad, we could even correct it for you.

    Just blame it all on IM! :-P

    That would actually be great. (Fixing it for me, that is.)

    [...] Another project was to build a wishing well to cover up our “ugly” well.  I told mom that this is going to be expensive, but thankfully I was able to use the scrap wood that the carpenters left when they built the deck. [...]
