12 Of 12 – May 2009
Well, I am in Flagstaff, AZ this entire week getting my house ready for the new renters (yes! we got it rented!!). My 12th of May was spent running around town getting items and working in the back yard before my sister and her husband showed up later in the afternoon to help out. Here’s how my day went.
My sleeping arrangements for the week – full size at least!
The house was painted yesterday! It’s so clean and fresh looking!
Today was going to be another day of busting my hump in the small back yard.
I had to run to the bank to close an account and transfer money.
Home Depot to pay for the carpet that is going to be installed this week.
This rose bush was the bane of my existence today. It really didn’t want to come out.
My sister arrived and we went to the nursery to buy plants! This is a lemon smelling creeping thyme plant.
This vinca is growing in the front, we’re moving a huge chunk of it to the back.
An up close look at the purple flowers this vine produces.
I was starving so we had dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings. It. Was. Good.
My sister chilling after a hard day of work! You can vaguely see her husband chilling outside on the back steps. It was a busy day for all.
My new sleeping arrangements. My sister brought a twin mattress to sleep on with her husband… Oops! So I gave up my full for the night.
Even though I was not at work, I still found it difficult to get 12 pictures. I think it was mostly because I was concerned with getting to where I needed to be at whatever time I needed to be there. I had a list and I needed to stick to it. I was able to get everything done that I wanted to on Tuesday and my luck has followed me into Wednesday. This house has been weighing on me lately and getting it ready to rent (finally) will really put me at ease. I’ll post pictures of the back yard after the full day we put into it on Wednesday soon. You won’t believe your eyes!

Well if Buffalo Wild Wings has your endorsement I may just have to finally visit the on here in Portland, I drive past it all the time. I bet the yard and the house look awesome.

Property management is such a headache sometimes! Glad you’re though the worst of it!
Now I want wings. For breakfast. That’s just not right …
Nice 12 :)

Looks like your hard work is paying off.

Well done on such a productive day! I’m sure it’ll all be worth it and load off your mind!
Sorry I’m so behind on commenting – been a very busy time with lots of travel! Even my 12 of 12 was only up on the 15th!
