It seems my streak of luck is only getting better....hah.
Among many other things that I haven't griped about here, now we have a bunch of new "landscaping" to do....last weekend, our septic tank started backing up into our basement. We we hoping to be able to just pump it out and be done with it, but of course not....we have to put in a whole new septic system. Right now, we're sitting with a 10 foot deep hole in our front yard (at least we can use the water again for the time being)....but we are going to have to remove this one, put in a new one, run a new leach line across the yard and stuff. Have to have another huge tree cut down (even larger than the one that fell recently) and removed, as well as digging up our sidewalk, across our driveway, and all in all creating a huge, ungodly muddy mess.....not to mention the "roughly" 7 grand it's going to cost.....and that doesn't include repairing/replacing the concrete stuff, tree removal, new sod, etc.
Here's our first portion of our new "landscaping"....we constructed this lovely fence to keep the critters from falling in...
