Thanks. Great job. I love my out door space too. ❤

Fabulous job. Super helpful for diy patio that I am currently working on. FYI for fire pit charcoal and wood pellets are great alternatives to wood. I cruise the discount/clearance for any.

I live in North Carolina fire pits have to be 10 feet from your house be safe love what you did. I have the planters I need to clear the area and add the gravel.

I'm deeply sorry for your painful loss! My Dad used to be a volunteer firefighter when he was young. I learned at a very young age the importance of fire safety. So many ways a fire can start, spread quickly or be reignited. I had friends that thought I was always overly cautious. As an adult I worked on a house that had severe fire damage after someone left something on the stove unattended. The first floor had to be completely gutted. The damage was so scary to see. About 10 yrs ago I had to call the fire department after I noticed that a neighbor's previous outdoor fire, they had at night, near their house, it had reignited during a dry & windy day. The fire department stayed about an hour to make sure it was completely out, that the ground was completely saturated with water. Then they waved at me, yelled over to thank me for calling them. I like to keep water on hand when using the BBQ or fire pit that's kept a good distance away from our house. I cover it with water when I'm finished using it.

True!! And campfires or pits in cabin areas can ignite those big trees because their roots run all over the place.

Your first house?! That’s amazing!! Buying a house is such a big accomplishment!! So proud of you!!

Way to go!!! I am the same when it comes to taking a bit to get things done. I've never been able to buy a house and I just turned 56 8 days ago. :/ One day I will! :) If I wasn't in the middle of nowhere Nebraska, I'd come help do what you'd want done in your yard. I can't work anymore (originally cause of a severe work injury as a prison guard then MS decided to try and win...but I'm doing my best not to let it), but I LOVE helping folks, pretty good with a hammer & saw (self taught, thank you KZfaqrs!!), SUPER good at finding material needed, etc. But the house I rent is owned by a super duper nice guy, and I can do whatever I want except bad stuff (obviously). The past renters destroyed it (in my eyes) so I have my work cut out, but I LOVE it. :) Again, congrats on your house!!!!!! :)

@@MissJenni5309 I'm sorry to hear about your work injury! I actually had back surgery and about 4 dozen injections so i'm limited to what I can do too, but I make it work. I am doing a little at a time. Its coming along nicely so far. I can't wait to schedule like a week vacation to really try to get more done than I'd usually get done over the weekend. :) You're such a sweetheart for offering to help! Thank you. I found a coworker that does landscaping! Who knew? He's going to help me get alot done this summer so I am really looking forward to those accomplishments! Good luck to you! Thanks again!

Thank you! Yes! ❤️❤️❤️

Please don’t show your baby online in his diaper, you have no idea who is saving these images and where they end up on the dark web. Maybe watch youtuberheadlines video she posted today talking about where these videos end up and it’s gross.

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
