I have figured out how to keep my record – I have a Word document on my desktop so I don’t have to OPEN anything to make entries! Hee hee, easiest yet!

Construction here has added stress, especially with my rather goofy neighbor. Here is the wall they took down between my yard and hers.

Demolition begins…

Halfway through the demolition, she decided she would like them to leave part of the wall. !!!!! Even though code requires a wall, and a new wall could not be erected…
