Yes, I'm still mourning for the shed.
It's not like cremation is an option,
or burial - maybe I can make some
modern art out of it. And with these
wonderful "no payments/no interest"
plans these days, I still haven't even
paid for it yet. :)
Karen, her dad, and I went out
yesterday afternoon and lashed what is
left to a tree - he suggested we build
a wooden frame and reconstruct the shed
around it, but after all that work, I
can't yet build up any interest.
Joy. :)
So how was everyone else's weekend?
