Sidewalk is done...

After Beth came home from church, we headed to Lowe's for phase 2 of the sidewalk. We got 4 bags and a squeegee. We came home and began the process. Since this stuff was thinner than the cement mix form yesterday, we figured we could mix it in a bucket and use the drill to stir it. By now the sun is over head and it getting hot. We found Beth is a better mixer and I am better at troweling. It worked well for us. Only one problem. We were about 4 bags short. So Beth finished with what we had and I ran back to Lowe's. I am so glad it is only a 5 minute drive. I ran in and got 5 more bags. Thank god the guy loaded it on the cart for me. I did load the bags in the truck. I did not know something that is only 18 inches long and 10 inches wide could wait 40 pounds. So off I went to get back home. We only need 3 more bags and the project was completed. We both think it turned out rather nice and is a whole lot better than what we had. We still have to do the spa deck, but are hoping to sell the hot tub first so we can do the whole thing. So after washing all the tools and cleaning up the mess, we still had to cut the grass. I told Beth I would do the back. It seemed only fair as we were both really tired. So off I went to push mow the back yard. I found that even though the lawn mower is self propelled, I had very little hand strength left to even push it into that mode. But I got it done. I finished putting thing away and came in to take a much needed shower. Thank god we see Dr. Bill tomorrow. Beth finished cutting the front yard and then did some wed spraying. She finally came in around 6:30pm and took a shower. We had left over pizza for dinner and are watching the Flyers and the Phillies. I am so ready for bed. Today's picture's are of the finished sidewalk. Not to bad!!!
