Got the raised bed started...




Category: Other | Posted: Sun Mar 21, 2010 11:43 pm

Finally! I went to moms this morning after dropping the bf off at work (11am). I really did mean to start the bed then and there, but I got distracted by Bobs (the bf) very messy van. I took it upon myself to grab a trashbag and 2 grocery bags, and put trash in the one and recipts and important looking papers in the sacks for him to go through. Then i moved all his cleaning/car products out of the way (he has a carpet cleaning business) and used my tiny little shop vac to sweep up all the dirt and candy wrappers that were to small or gross to pick up *lol*. then I put everything back neatly...hes gonna be shocked :D Then I went out back and started working on the bed. I got 2 boards up with the corner stake. I hate the screws I got from Menards. The heads strip too easily. A coworker said I should try deck screws instead of basic wood screws.

Gonna end this now. Will post pics when i get home to my computer. Right now Im on my cell phone at work, trying not to get caught using it! *lol*

The bed looks a little crooked cause the yard slopes a tiny bit.

I'll lay bets that your BF will never be able to find anything now that you've cleaned and tidied out his van Jen!! lol
I look forward to seeing photographs of the progress you've made with the raised bed.
