Two a Day: end of an era...for now

I started my Two a Day project on June 5 so it hasn't been quite two months. I've crossed a lot of items off of my To Do List in that time and I don't think I would have accomplished so much if I didn't have the structure and support of this blog and its commenters to keep me motivated.

This sounds like a farewell post and it is, sort of. I have a new job coming up that I need to prepare for and I'm doing the decorations for a friend's reception so I have several art projects to coordinate for that. I am still going to do projects in the yard and break it up into manageable pieces but my new projects mean I'll have to be more flexible with my time which means I won't have the time for photos and a narrative.

I still want to get a pergola built and some flagstone laid in the yard so maybe I'll do a special follow-up post or two. But for now, my yard work will be less structured and less blogged about. Thank you to everyone who shared your ideas and experience with me. I am a babe in the woods with this stuff and I loved having a community of folks who are wiser than I to guide and encourage me through this work.

Thanks for the good reads this summer and good luck with all of your current projects!

And thanks again for showing the love folks.
