when my beloved’s boyfriend repaired the side gate door, it stuck a bit when closing…

I didn’t mind as it was a way to keep the door open without needing a bungee cord to hold it open…

the other day, when he was helping us transport the plywood for the dining room dresser project, he noticed that it was sticking…

he arrived the next day with his tools, removed the door, and sawed off a little piece…

once he sanded the bottom he reinstalled it and it now opens and closes beautifully…

I am blessed with so many helpers…

on Tuesday evening one of the doors on the side gate was taken away to be repaired by one of my beloved’s boyfriends…

a number of the “rays” had broken over time so it needed a delicate touch to return it to its former glory…

it was odd that only this one door had the broken pieces…

at bedtime I put a chair up in the empty space as I didn’t want the deer to come and visit (ie, eat) anything in the garden, lol…

Wednesday afternoon it was returned all beautiful and restored…

we screwed it back into the hinges and it looks excellent…

I was surprised yesterday morning when I looked out the window to see the hammock stand on its back against the planter… clearly the wind had lifted the umbrella and blew it over…

when I went out I saw that the umbrella on the top was perfectly fine so I took it off… the wind has been very strong since Tuesday and may continue for a number of days… a section of the edging had broken right off…

the umbrella went into the garage and I was able to put the stand back up… not going to put the umbrella back on until the weather improves…

now to arrange to have the planter repaired;-)…
