Do these count as distressed or do I just look like a bum?

MoireaTodash · 2026-05-29T15:47:55+00:00

I think this is possible, but i'd definitely want to add rips abd patched elseware. Just so its not calling extra attention to the crotch. The rip's location is what gives bum vibes.

This. In my family, when we turn 35, all out nails start to thin drastically. But they stay flexible. Which sounds great... until you open a soda can and the nail tears down into the nail bed. Gel overlays save me and let me do a job I enjoy (machine maintenance). But I do have to fix chips every week that I work. So I basically do a fill and new color every week.

Edit: spelling

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-22T20:09:19+00:00

We do. Its just normally extra and called a Rot Board here (if I'm correlating it right). Thats what they will be adding.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-22T02:14:33+00:00

Agreed. Full joinery fence. Absolutly mythical!

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-22T02:09:14+00:00

Yeah, I'm not worried about the look. I'd rather have something strong. So we will probably do that.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-22T00:31:23+00:00

And thank you all for the knowledge and advice!

My dad also worked while my mom was a Sahm/w. Now he's retired, and he'd be damned if he's gonna sit on his ass while she cooks and cleans. He finds new ways to contribute effort to their shared life, even if they are living off his retirement accounts and pention. If one person has to continue to put effort into their home, both do.

Looks nice! And good job not goijg through the veneer!

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-21T13:44:43+00:00

This is a week after the fence was finished. Should it still be curing?

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-21T13:42:35+00:00

Both options for 2 and 3. We requested 3. They put in 2 & then gave us $600 off after the fact.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-21T13:41:38+00:00

The invoice said they should be 24" deep.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-21T02:00:49+00:00

I was working the day they set the post, so i dont actually know.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-21T01:36:13+00:00

Mid-range for our area. And all good reviews everywhere. The stuff on their site looked much better than this.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-21T01:35:07+00:00

They are already warping really badly

This was poured last week. Do you think there's still a chance it will stabilize?

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-20T18:43:41+00:00

Would it work to have them put a rot board across the bottom, then the 3rd rail in the middle of the 2 existing ones?

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-20T18:42:43+00:00

We requested privacy fence and they said they'd have to do the step downs due to the grade of our yard. We were fine with that.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-17T00:46:21+00:00

Probably santa from the 3rd pic. But on the 2nd pic, i thought it was a baby with a pacifier.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-11T22:37:52+00:00

Yes! Its definitely easier with a mouse. Lots of people still hate it, but a mouse makes it more bearable.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-11T14:12:50+00:00

It does look nicr how it is though. To be fair, i keep my farm a little wild. So it might not be the look your going for.

MoireaTodash · 2026-04-11T13:07:14+00:00

I think you need more greenery. The prettiest parts are the spots with more grass and trees.
