I have known the haynes manual to sometimes skip steps.. My ford manual would leave out a step, and I would go to the Chilton's manual and say...WTF..

Between the two, I managed to fumble my way through.

Then if I went to a mechanic friend, he would say, oh no, all you had to do was.....

But a mechanic I am NOT...

Nice Yards Boys...

Thought I would share..

When I bought my House, it had no yard, and the Wife and I built the yard together.

WE call it "Tiny Town". Because it is a small condensed yard with a little bit of everything..Lawn, garden Boxes, Covered area..

Yes my cat "Scooby-Doo" talks to the angel...My Wife brought the angel home when I was on my death Bed and hauled it back there by herself to surprise me during my recovery..

And Doves hang out by the angel too... Strange but very cool..

Thanks. It was a few years ago when I could work my job and come home to play in the yard..

Harder to do now days..

It will be tough to leave if I get this other crazy house, but we will see what life brings..

Nice job on the design. I'm a nub when it comes to real estate. What is staging a house?

She goes into a house that is for sale and pulls out all the stuff and replaces it with stuff that compliments the house to sell it quickly..Artwork, flowers. Furniture. Rugs

It draws the wives in like a moth to a flame..Sells the house faster..

She gets stuff from consignment shop where she works.. It is cool because the inside of my House looks like a model home, but the stuff is bought whole sale. Plus some Pier 1 Import stuff..

Man that actually sounds like it could be a really fun job and something that would be right up my wife's alley. How did she fall into that line of work, and does it generate a fair compensation?

I gave her a good wash and vacuumed the interior and she looked really great.

Morning everyone.. I need coffee.

Happy, she loves to buy at garage sales for the last 10 years, and she works in a Higher end Consignment shop. So she learned what they would buy and what was valuable, and what is junk.

Then she buys and sells stuff and then keeps the good stuff for us and for staging. Then she hooked up with a few realtors, and goes in and changes the look of the house for a fee.

The consignment stuff is based on a percentage and they split it maybe 50%.

But they mark the stuff up so she makes her money. But in the last several years , it has gotten crazy with the T.V. shows..

Women and ghay men have a knack for design.. I would leave all the walls white or tan and just live with it..

I need coffee..
