#17: Build Something

Inspired by my newest favorite song, Miranda Lambert’s “The House that Built Me,” I decided to build a house. Not exactly your typical single family residence, rather a house of cards. (Kevin and I have been debating over whether to call it a house of cards—my vote—or a card house). Ok, so I know that this is a cop out. Originally I was going to build a new fence but Lowe’s didn’t have a truck to rent the day we had set aside for building so I couldn’t get the fencing home. (In retrospect I’m really glad I didn’t spend the money to fix up this house. This will make more since in a later blog post). Then I decided to help Mike B build some steps up into his hot tub. But the weekend I went down to Richmond we ended up doing more partying than building. Which left me with very little time to actually break out the power tools and lumber. Instead, I took advantage of the vague wording and built a house of cards. Or a card house, whatever. It might be lame, but my blog, my rules.
