Mini-Project Done!

Well, one project done, many more to go! One of my biggest peeves when we moved in was the carpet out on our Juliet Balcony just off our bedroom. You can see, the blue carpeting (not sure if I am gonna trash it yet).

It was comfy on your feet, but when it rained it left the plywood underneath soaked for days! No matter how much the sun shined.

So before everything rotted out right underneath our feet. I took it upon myself, and ripped off the carpet and painted the plywood directly to protect the wood. It worked beautifully, now it dries in no time flat! (It's a nice shade of gray and it looks so much better.)

And looky Beepa, the cactus you gave us loves its new home and is growing like crazy! It's almost as tall as Toby now!
Toby loves the balcony. Gives him a better view of the squirrels, and if any neighborhood kitties get in the yard. (He has already chased two different neighbor cats up the same tree.) If any critter is in his yard, watch out, he's gonna chase yah!

Question: Have you ever seen a cat run directly into a chain link fence at full speed and bounce off it like a sideways trampoline!? I have...twice, eek! (Fortunately no cats were harmed, Toby just likes the chase.)
I am gonna spend the rest of my day studying out on the balcony, it's gorgeous out!! One of those days that you just wanna sing about!! :-)
