What advice do you have for keeping a fence in good shape?
Tumblr media
Continually check your fence for any signs of damage, and replace or repair any sections that require it as needed.
Prune back any plants that are close to the fence to prevent them from growing into it or totally covering it.
If you want to protect the wood and maintain the appearance of your fence, paint it using a high-quality outdoor paint approved for use on wood fences.
To occasionally remove dirt, mildew, or other debris from your fence, use a pressure washer.
To prevent pests and water damage, fill in any gaps or cracks in the fence as needed with caulk or wood putty.
Periodically check the stability of the posts and, if necessary, reinforce them with more dirt or concrete.
7. Put any slack hardware back in place and tighten screws, bolts, or nails as necessary.
To maintain the good looks and functionality of your fence, replace any broken boards or fence pieces with new ones.
To make the wood last longer, apply a sealer or preservative to it sometimes.
Think about putting a gate so you can have more flexibility with your fence, such as keeping dogs inside or outside and allowing simple access to the opposite side.
Keep an eye out for any rot or decay on your fence and address the issue right away by replacing or fixing the affected area.
Check for trees that aren't too close to the fence because their roots can damage it over time.
Be sure to routinely look for pests or other animals that may be residing in or around your fence and deal with them as necessary.
Verify that your fence complies with local building laws and any new regulations that may have been put in place when it was first put in.
If any repairs become too extensive or complicated for you to tackle on your own, call a professional.

I have new neighbors and today they were out in their yard (the youngest kid saw a cool bug) and their little dog was offleash so I got to meet neighbor dog! Neighbor dog is my new favorite
#the person behind the yarn#neighbor dog is small and has curly fur and tiny little corgi-esque legs#and her tail is so fluffy it drags on the ground when it's down#but she mostly walks around with her tail up and waving like a flag#absolutely adorable! I sat on the ground to greet her (to be less intimidating)#and once I passed the sniff check and she'd greeted my dad and brother too#she came back to me and flopped against my legs for more pets#I am delighted to meet her and hope I will see her again in the near future#and since she's an offleash dog and my yard is not really fenced between my house and my neighbor's#I'm sure I will lol#I do not understand offleash dogs? like. fundamentally don't get it#but also none of my childhood dogs were recall trained#and my main two dogs in childhood were A. a runner. wanted to run more than anything. if the door was open he'd run and run and run#not to get away he just really liked running#and B. my dear Wolfie who had the common sense of a block of concrete#we could not let that dog offleash because he would get lost inside the house#he got stuck up a tree once (only like a foot off the ground)#he was the size of a sort of large rabbit (another reason not to be offleash)#so he was offleash in our fenced in yard but only supervised#either by a human or by our other dog (who was both smart and scary enough to scare away other animals)#okay I guess I had three childhood dogs? I think we got Lilly when I was an adult though#Lilly could not be an offleash dog because she had an EXTREMELY high prey drive. she was a hunting dog#she was also Wolfie's bodyguard

i was just thinking this morning that it’s such a shame to live in a city & watch people let their fruiting trees and bushes just rot because they’re often there for aesthetic or inherited instead of intentional for harvest but when i got to work i checked on the apple tree overhanging the parking lot & they cut it down!!!! so obviously im not paying attention to fruiting trees either. who knows when that happened

Also! i m fairly certain i saw a bee fly and it was so cute!!! i was like!!!!! that looks that#that one pokemon it HAS to be a beefly and i will id it soon when i can access my pics but it was soooo cute <3#also the wasps are paper wasps not 100% sure which ones off the top of my head but def paper wasps#they were v chill some even came over and landed on my head it was fun#and im not kidding there were SO many like my photos are all of them close up and one at a time but there were never less than#5 right near me like there were so many i had to watch my step bc they were everywhere and i didnt want to hurt them#and they're so cute i got some good pics of them grooming and looking at me w their cute little eyes#also i saw a few jumping spiders (there are A TON around our house) but i did not get many pics bc they like sitting on the fence and#anytime i would come near to take a pic they would scurry around to the other side of the fence posts and stare at my w their big eyes#and run to the other side when i tried to move to get their pic so yeah they were too wary for pics today but that's okay i already#have soooo many pics of them lol

you need to start fencing now. you need to join your local hema club. there you will meet many wonderful transexuals and many strange heterosexual men who will act as your mentors and with whom you will develop a homoerotic relationship with. you are out of school and need a way to make new friends irl; you are a grown up and need to find a way to work out that you enjoy. go stab people. go swing a sword your height at someone's head and they will say "great job! you looked good out there" and give you an exceptionally sweaty hug and you will feel loved an accepted and maybe a little horny but that's just the warrior's bond

Politely: if you see me in my yard, struggling to wrangle my very reactive dog (who is going BALLISTIC because of YOUR dog across the street) and you just. Stop to stare at the spectacle
What the fuck is wrong with you??

y'know i really miss doing fun physical activities that would regularly fuck up my body, like actually, i miss putting in so much work that i would come away grinning and mottled with bruises, i miss the sore muscles that meant i had put in all the effort i could, i miss complaining about an instructor working us too hard but it just meant they knew we could do it with the right push, i miss the constructive ways i could destroy myself instead of just rotting from existence

lucky me, I saw FOUR kitties on my walk today
...although none of them wanted to be pet. they all just warily watched me make kissy faces at them and sing little songs about how cute they were, and then went on watching me as I gave them space and kept going.

i love urbex sometimes because people will record themselves breaking into Very Illegal places and then act like a video game protag the whole time
