How I did it
How to finish our new pool fence
It took me
2 days
It made me
Great that it's done

How I did it: - Pulled down the old fence when we leveled the yard.- Research fence types and prices- Dug the holes- Mixed up concrete- Put in poles- Attached the panels- Drilled the gate latch into the wall- Painted pieces of wood to screw into the outside fence near the pool fence (because we've got the inside of the gate so could be used as a step)- Lots of other little things like putting points on top of the hinges, cleaning the bottoms of the poles, etc. Read how I did it…

How to get a garden shed
It took me
1 year
It made me
Great!

How I did it: - Bought a shed- Cleared the area- Made the slab- Put together the shed- Bolted it to the slab- Cut lots of holes in it so the pool filter and electricity could go insideSounds a lot simpler then it was, was a lot of hard work but it looks great now! Read how I did it…

How to finish moving all the damn dirt out the back!
It took me
4 weeks
It made me
Good

How I did it: Got a shovel and wheel barrow and slowly took it all out the back. Raked it flat when we got it there.Should have done it so much sooner, the grass is now all dead under there. Read how I did it…

Finish our new pool fence (read all 2 entries…)
It's Done!! 6 days ago

Fingers crossed it’s all legal! I think we did everything right. Just wait for a random council check I guess to know 100% but it looks good and seems to conform completely to the standard.

Photo is a photo of it all ready to go up before we put the concrete in the holes.

Finish our new pool fence (read all 2 entries…)
Getting it legal 2 weeks ago

The old pool fence was moved when we re-did the backyard and this was what it was looking like.
Lovely and tired up with string (oh so legal lol) so I have to get the new one in and going asap.

Go to the dentist 09 (read all 2 entries…)
Maybe it's a pressing issue 3 weeks ago

I think the one tooth at the bottom of my teeth is getting pushed further out :( So I really need to go get this checked out, bet it’s going to be expensive. Stupid dentists.
