The possibilities...

Today we had to make a trip to Home Depot...oh the possibilities...and we didn't even enter the actual store...we were just in the garden department.

I haven't been to a home improvement store in quite a long time.  I'm sure they must have some sort of equivalent somewhere in Singapore but I certainly have never seen one.  Plus, manual labor comes pretty cheap there so I'm guessing there probably are not a lot of do-it-yourself projects around the house.  Kind of sad if you ask me...I think it is fun to hatch an idea, plan it, and then see it come to fruition by your own hand. 

I could walk around home improvement stores for hours...just looking at all of the possibilities.  Sometimes Alan and I do just that...for fun...we're dorks...we know...  I also think it is fun to watch everybody else in there and see what they are either looking at or purchasing.  (It is always a bonus when you get the couple that seems to be having a disagreement or one of them really DOES.NOT.WANT to be there...we've all had those moments in our relationships.)  If I had unlimited money I'm pretty sure that I could redesign or build a new house over and over again.

The weather here didn't disappoint today.  It was perfect for us to spread 25 bales of pine straw in the front yard.  Now to design that new patio for the backyard...
