guess what I did today...
I managed to get one of my dining room windows in tonight. The second one will get in sometime this week I hope. Yeah, I could have put both of them in if I hadn't gone to the movie yesterday, but I don't care. I'm glad I took the day to see it.
My hands are a little worse for wear after busting the stone out. I should probably use gloves, but I tell myself the same thing every time. Maybe I just can't do without the tactile feel of the sledgehammer, the tingle in the handle when it hits the stone, and picking through the rock pile afterwards. Then again maybe my head is as hard as the stone.
My neighbor was a little surprised when he got home tonight. You would think he would be used to finding me doing these things. He thought it looked good though, and even that it was strange to think it wasn't always there. Hopefully it still looks like it should have always been this way when I get the other three windows in.
Unfortunately I found out that my ivy has been making it through cracks in the mortar. I really like the ivy, but I think I may end up having to cut it all down. I may try pulling it off the wall and re-training it on a trellis, but who knows what I'll end up doing. I sure don't.
