The Shed...What on earth am I getting myself into?



This lump of spider webs, junk and dry rot is what I would like to call a work in progress. For some insane reason I haven't quite grasped yet I seem to think that I want to turn this pile of nothing into my own little greenhouse/potting shed. I hope that this is only the beginning of something that will turn out to be beautiful. Now before I get to ahead of myself we need to take a closer look inside just so that you fully understand just how much work this is going to be.

As you can see, there is an extremely large hole in the roof of this dream shed. The plus side to this is that it doesn't look like the 2x4 beams are rotted, just the plywood. So I guess there is some good news :). Now I just need about 8 sheets of plywood and a bunch of roofing. Wish me luck, maybe I can find a good deal on Craigslist.


And this picture gives you a pretty good idea of what the rest of the inside of this thing looks like. Perhaps before anything else I should bomb this black widow haven. Then we will do clean up, then hopefully I can get the roof done before the year is done. These are big plans, so we will just see how it works out. All I know is I have to try and get this done before January so all of my little seedlings will have a warm home to grow in. If you need some ideas of what I need for my b-day, here you go. Plywood and shingles...or just a Home Depot gift card if it's easier. Or nothing at all, I really don't care. The older you get the less you care about things like presents and more about just being around the people you love and doing the things that make you happy.
