Stairs Progress and Selfie

December 4, 2016 By: Summer Samba39 Comments

If you recall from the other day, the stairs to my backyard are being replaced. I thought I’d check in on the progress before doing my selfie today.

As you can see, there is a lot of old stuff piling up! Fortunately, I think the noisy part is over.

So far, they have only set up the posts in the new concrete. I think the stairs will start going in on Monday.

That’s it right now — so hand over that iPhone.

Oops! I almost dropped the phone! There are times when I wish I had thumbs.

Oh no, it’s the classic photo-with-the-eyes-shut screw-up! I will tell you a secret: that happens to my human a lot.

Okay, this one works! It’s a little chilly out here so I want to go back inside.

    Whoa! You had to put up with the jackhammering too, didn’t you? Binga should be glad she’s hard of hearing. Great selfie although I tend to like the imperfect ones cos they look more like selfies.

    Nicely done, as always! Fergus agrees with you about the thumbs bit. If he had thumbs, he could get into the cupboards where all the FOOOOOOD is, and that’s his most urgent wish!

    Great selfie, Summer, you sure can bring a touch of elegance wherever you are, even to a building site. Sure hope they get all the noisy, dirty, and smelly stuff done quick so you don’t have to worry about going outdoors to do inspections in the cold. purrs ERin

    It takes a while with all the mess, but it will be worth it when they have finished. Your selfie is lovely. At least you are looking at the camera, unlike me. To tell the truth, my mum used to call me a poser because I loved having my photo taken. Now I make things difficult for her, but I think I am entitled to after all these years.
