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…

Changing lifestyle slowly 2 months ago

Well there as been a few changes recently so I’ve decided to use them to help motivate me to change my eating and exercise habits :)

I’m Pregnant!! :)
Went to get a massage on Friday and talked to a naturopath and we went through what I’m currently eat, different things I need to be doing and taking while and a ealthier eating plan and I’ve started today!
Not eating less or specifically trying to lose weight. Just eating heathier and making sure I’m not eating junk.

Also just did 14mins on the exercise bike :)
Rode 6km and burnt 136 calories.

Finish our new pool fence (read all 2 entries…)
It's Done!! 2 months 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.

Getting it legal 3 months 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.
