August Goals Update

1. Fix dining room table.

2. Paint dining room table.

3. Recover dining room chairs.

4. Get budget back on track.

5. Start additional retirement savings.

This month was a bit of a bust!  We did get our budget back on track, but everything else needs to wait until we can borrow some tools.  Hoping to get them this weekend, and then we will work on the table!  Hopefully we will have better luck in September.

House Update: Outside

Back yard with a view of the garden

Patio with our new lounge chairs

Grill and new hose box

New fence section

Side door

Flowers

Hydrangeas in the front yard

Front of the house with a puppy model

Eventually we would like to stain our fence a dark brown like the wood on the house.  We also may expand and change our garden next year.
