HGTV

I'm watching too much HGTV again.

I want to be able to do all those repairs and construction things, but I think I'm overly ambitious. Maybe twenty or thirty years ago, I could have done these things but I'm not sure now that I can.

One of my goals in having my knees repaired was to enable myself to be able to get out in the yard and do some of the gardening again. Also I want to be able to paint a room again and do many of the things I used to do. Maybe that's why HGTV is so seductive to me. They make everything look simple and easy enough for me to do.

It's doubtful that I'll ever be able to install a new shower in place of my old tub or turn my basement into an income suite, but this summer I'm definitely planting some flowers in my front bed.
