Living the Dream Year 5 Day 14 – The Wellington – Middle bedroom spackling completed, mulched front, setup front walk, crop drone, Bore bee trap set

Year 5, Day 14, “Living the Dream”. Wednesday, 5/14/2025. The Wellington – The spackling is completed in the middle bedroom. There are a few closets that still need to be spackled and the garage. We are getting to the end of this job.

In the afternoon we picked up some organic hardwood mulch and placed it around the front yard plants. It looks so nice.

Lowes is delivering 3,730 charcoal colored pavers tomorrow. We had enough dense pack stone in a pile to set up where the front walkway will be.

We put out the Carpenter Bee trap after hearing the drilling going in the railing again. The pile of saw dust is growing. We plugged the hole up with a wooden dowel. That bee is stuck in his tomb along with the babies that will emerge in August. The first bee in was a wasp. Then we killed a Bore Bee and placed him in the clear container for bait. The scent is supposed to attract more bore bees.

The big excitement of my day was coming home. I saw this huge drone flying over the wheat fields. Check it out in the pictures and video. It was flying over the wheat fields the next block over. Wonder what is being sprayed. I went home and made sure my windows were closed. The drone was cool though.

Things to ponder today! Have to leave you thinking.

Here’s a link to today’s Amazon recommendation: https://amzn.to/3HfnS0U Bag of white cotton rags: We always have a bag of these around for painting, staining, cleaning, dusting, plumbing, etc. The handle in the bag is great. We even wash them to use again and again.
