BELLA'S FENCE

This is not  Bella but it could be

(via google)

Let me begin by saying

" I LOVE DOGS"

really I do

I have had many beloved dogs over the years and I am a dog lover from the depths of my soul

but

now we don't have a dog, 

no fence plus too much travel equal no pets

I love your dogs too

but

at your house!

We have had a jalopy fence since we moved to 822 and in the midst of all our construction

it was, well, down the line of priorities...but finally....the time came

Even though it was on the list...we were sort of rushed into the plan by our neighborhood pitbull Bella

Bella likes our pool floats, our patio cushions, our shoes left on the porch, our hedgehog shoe scraper, our baskets that hold towels and well...Bella likes the pool

I have found our stuff

in the neighbor's yard(s)

in the street 

in the alley

and even in her yard at her house down the street

and then one day I found Bella swimming

we called

we facebook messaged

we went for a visit

we asked nice

we asked less than nice

then we asked directly

with the magic word

please keep Bella home

It took a few days to get the supplies

lumber ladders nails and hard work

it dried up enough to begin work on the sod again

***Cute yard man told me he has never put in a yard that it didn't rain...

we got two (unheard of JULY) rains during this time and it even rained while they were laying the sod**

why these two could be in fence uniform

blue shirt* black shorts* cap*

hey Mr. PV I better get you one of those tool belts for your birthday !

sod...in

chair that no one will sit it in

IN

cap 

on

boxes that cover marble and stone with random black widow spiders

gone

pool protected from Bella

floats safely bobbing in the night breeze

ready for precious friends to visit

I wonder who Bella will visit now since 

we finally have some

PRIVACY PLEASE!!!

Thank you dear heart

you are "ma man"!
