My THOUSAND Dollar experiment....Day 25
Today's tithe money ($2500) is going to go to several local soup kitchens/food pantries. They will be very excited to get the money!! It will go to hungry neighbors who need the food badly to help make ends meet.
I know it is winter right now, but I am going to focus on warm weather today. What happens in the Bozza household in the warm weather? Well, gardening of course! I will take my left over money ($22,500) and dedicate it to the repair of my rock walls, flower beds and vegetable beds. I will have my local masonry specialist, Franco, re-build my rock walls all along the outer edges of the front of my yard, as well as all along the house and property. I will have him also help me with tilling and re-fertilizing the garden beds as well as the flower beds along the side street and driveway.
We will take down the dog run fence and till the tomato beds and build a custom made raised bed for the new veggies to be grown in the spring. I will even build a mini green house on top of the raised bed that is removable from the bed. All my tomatoes will be warm and safe from any critters! I will even pay for the whole lawn to be covered with sod so that we will have beautiful grass for the kids to play in. (There is a lot of work to do there since we have had critters burrow and make nasty tunnels!!) I will also install a trickling fountain in the back in the middle of my circle garden, complete with a bench to enjoy it all. Oh, and I almost forgot! replace the play area for the kids, complete with built in sand box and play stuff with the rubber outdoor flooring and all. They will love it and so will I.
All the Best!
