Another day, another layer of stone.
It’s back breaking work and though I kept offering to help… I got the look and strolled myself back inside the house.

Every time I thought he was almost finished, I’d check back to find he’d removed what he previously laid and reworked the section.

And when he knelt inside the border like that?

It looked like one very expensive sandbox.

God bless him in this heat.

He starts early in the morning, and the tree provides nice shade. He quits at lunch time..

Well look on the bright side, he’s almost done…….if he’d stop redoing what he’s already worked on. 🤣

Oh my. He’s a perfectionist, isn’t he? I hope it’s finished soon and you don’t get that ‘look’ any longer.

I’ve been getting the look for 38 years. I’m almost immune at this point.

I feel his pain. I am not pleasant to be around when I am struggling. Snook just beats a retreat and lets me kill myself.

There have been times I’ve tried to be perfect executing a project and my wife will tell me to just let it go as is…and other projects where I’ve followed her recommendation and then questioned about why I didn’t try to make it perfect? And I am sure if you asked her, she’d say the same about me! We make sure to agree on a project before we start, but we do run into the “perfection” curse a lot.
