Title: Sealing the Driveway
Post by: duh on Apr 15, 2014, 04:07:27 PM

150 dollars later  I have the sealer for the driveway.  Now I just have to pay for the pressure washer and randy to do the work.  I'm so glad he is around.

I am very glad you have some help there, Tammy.

Now I have to wait for mother nature.  It's to cold to do the work.  Isn't it always something?

Now I have to get the tile for the kitchen.  I got the flooring, and the vanity for the kitchen.  With the transition pieces.  I hope I have chosen well since I plan to live with it the rest of my life.

I got out there and sprayed the round up weed killer 365 and it immediately rained.  That stuff is 35.00 per bottle.  Ugh.  And getting a different type of tar for the cracks along with the weed eater costs another 85 dollars in change.  I'm going broke fast.

as in really immediately?  cuz my container says it's rain protected in 10 minutes.

The website says "Rainproof in 30 minutes".  Normally it's ok if it dries.

It didn't have a chance to dry.  it barely had a chance to hit the ground.  According to the bottle if it was going to work I'd have seen something within 12 hours.  This morning the weeds looked as healthy as ever.  I'll just have to get out there again when we get a clear day.  Not today.

Yeah,  no chance to work if it didn't dry at all.

Fortunately I have enough left to do it all again.
