We obtained the building permit and handled all inspections. We obtained approval from the Homeowner's Association to proceed with the work. We saw cut and removed the existing driveway which was cracked and deteriorated. We removed all debris from the premises. We fully compacted all soil. We poured the new driveway with 4000 PSI concrete with fiber mesh reinforcement. We hand troweled the concrete with a double boom finish. We cut all expansion joints accordingly.

You replace one a then another one goes. It seems to be a constant job keeping light in the kitchen.
Replacing the rear bumper cover on my red 1994 Miata with this one - probably temporarily but wanted to make it look good. Wet sanded it with 220 then sprayed a couple of layers of high-build primer, wet sanding in between each coat with 400. Finally a couple of good layers of Krylon glossy red. Yes, it's "rattle canned". Next will color sad with 1000-1200 and top it off with a layer or two of clear before putting it back on the car. I'm afraid it's going to look so good I'll have to do the rest of the car, LOL !!
I had a great painter who took the time getting my house ready to be painted. Of course, he started with a power wash that would remove any dirt, grime, mold, mildew, and old paint, ensuring a clean and dry underlying layer for the new paint to adhere properly.
My house does not have stucco. It has siding and will be 30 years old in four months, October 2025. Until now none of the siding had been replaced. Siding needs to be replaced when damaged or deteriorated due to rot, moisture, warping or structural weakness. This is a crucial step in preparing the house for painting, as any underlying issues can affect the durability and appearance of the new paint. Looking at my pictures you see that I did need some siding replaced.
Also important is the silicon caulking that he used to protect my house from the elements, to improve paint adhesion, and to create a smoother, more professional finish. Caulking seals gaps and cracks which prevents water from seeping into the walls and causing damage. It also fills uneven areas for a more uniform surface.
After removing any nails, he either caulked to seal the hole and prevent water damage or he used wood filler to fill the hole and create a smoother surface. Over the nail heads on the siding, he used caulk or filler to prevent rust, to seal the holes, and to ensure a smooth finish. Now you know why, for a day or two, my house looked like it had “chicken pox”!!!
He did two coats of paint. In the first, he used a combination of spraying and then immediately rolling-back with a roller, a painting technique used to achieve a smooth, uniform finish, especially on porous surfaces. Spraying provides quick and efficient coverage, while back-rolling enhances paint adhesion, ensures uniform application, and helps to smooth out any irregularities or imperfections. For the second coat he paint sprayed again.
AND NOW THE COLOR
Wow, I will say that I was overwhelmed when I first saw the paint on my house, especially the darker color. I was a bit taken aback. It is difficult to see a paint chip and then visualize the color on the house. Because if this, I bought small cans of paint and painted swatches that I adhered to the house. I then painted a larger amount on the back of a placemat and looked at that for a while in order to be sure of my choices. I even had a rendering done, and it looked good, so with that I went ahead with my color choices: Dunn Edwards, Silver Bullet and Eventide.
I do like it now, but I was a bit shocked at first. To be sure it was painted the correct color, I placed the paint swatches and the placemat that I had painted months ago on the newly painted house . . . and the color is an exact match. The difference is that I purchased flat paint rather than paint with sheen, like the semi-gloss on my house. Paint with sheen appears brighter in sunlight because it reflects more light. Wow, when the afternoon sun hits my house the grayish-purple paint (Eventide) on the front door, garage door, and façade above the garage is VERY bright and looks more purple. It’s more muted and looks grayer in the morning when the sun doesn’t hit the house. I sure hope my neighbors are not unhappy with the color combination. It is different.
Now that I have a new roof, new fascia, new flashing, new gutters, new paint colors, and new awnings on the way, I guess I better look into new HVAC. Mine will be 30 years old in four months!!!

The cabin deck is over 40 years old, the whole thing needs to go, but we can't do that at the moment, instead we spent a couple of afternoons over Easter replacing the worst of the worst of the rotten boards, all told just about 200 linear feet. We were proud of doing this on our own having never done this kind of thing before, and a great place to start/learn because it is temporary until the whole deck can be R&R'd. Maybe we'll build that too - I ain't scared.
I replaced Renee's photos in the collage frame she gave us at Christmas, with mine that I took at Churchill downs. Again , Thanks for a once in a lifetime experiance!
Southend Pier, Southend on Sea, Essex
Taken on an excursion cruise on the paddle steamer Waverley, travelling from Westminster to Gravesend to Southend, into the Medway and back again.
Waverley is named after Sir Walter Scott’s Waverley novels. She was built to replace the 1899 Waverley which was sunk by enemy action on May 29, 1940 at Dunkirk.
Waverley’s keel was laid on December 27, 1945 but due to material shortages after the war, she was not ready for launch until October 2, 1946. It wasn’t until the following year on January 20, 1947 that she was towed to Greenock for the installation of her boiler and engines. Her maiden voyage was on June 16, 1947.
Waverley was built for the route up Loch Goil and Loch Long from Craigendoran & Arrochar in West Scotland. She now visits several areas of the UK offering regular trips on the Clyde, The Western Isles, the Thames, South Coast of England and the Bristol Channel with calls at Liverpool & Llandudno.
Waverley is the World’s last seagoing paddle steamer. In 1974, at the end of her working life, she was famously gifted for £1 to the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society. Waverley Steam Navigation Co. Ltd., a charity registered in Scotland, was set up to own and operate the ship. Waverley then began a second career as one of the country’s best-loved tourist attractions. Since she has been in operational preservation, she has been awarded four stars by Visit Scotland, an engineering heritage award, and has carried over 6 million passengers from over 60 ports around the UK.
2003 saw the completion of a £7m Heritage Rebuild which returned Waverley to the original 1940s style in which she was built. This was made possible with major grants from the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society (PSPS). Contributions also came from Glasgow City Council, Scottish Enterprise Glasgow, the European Regional Development Fund and local authorities.
In May 2019 Waverley was withdrawn from service and a capital appeal was launched to raise £2.3 million to allow her boilers to be replaced and re-commission Waverley for further service. In December 2019 it was announced that the appeal target had been reached.
Despite delays to the boiler refit due to the COVID-19 pandemic Waverley returned to service in August 2020 and operated a short season on the Firth of Clyde. After a successful season on the Clyde the following year, Waverley will be returning to other sailing areas in 2022.
2022 marked 75 years since Waverley’s maiden voyage on June 16, 1947.
Paddle steamer history
In 1812, when Henry Bell’s paddle steamer Comet became the world’s first commercial steamship to operate in coastal waters, a tradition was started which remains alive today only in the form of the world’s last seagoing paddle steamer, Waverley.
From the 1860’s onward, paddle steamers developed an important niche in the coastal passenger and excursion trade. Large fleets served the cities, towns, villages and resorts of the Firth of Clyde, the Bristol Channel, the South Coast of England, London and the Thames Estuary.
Paddle Steamers also made a significant contribution to the war effort as minesweepers in both World Wars, and indeed Waverley is named after and was built to replace the previous Waverley who performed a heroic role at Dunkirk in May 1940 before being sunk by enemy action.
With a few exceptions, the Clyde steamers were owned and operated by railway companies. These were largely commuter ferries linking all the villages with the nearest railhead for onward travel.

If we limit UX/UI to only blatantly creating task-based digital 2D interfaces and products, then yes, AI can replace it. If we think UX/UI is also about how you make people feel while using your product (digital/non-digital), then AI can never replace it.
As we mentioned before, AI needs to be controlled and processed by humans; it can’t work independently and needs proper human input to generate the desired output. You must remember design can never be replaced by AI, design functions, on the other hand, can be. Because AI only gives you the power to build design quickly, what about the design sense? That should be your own!
Without design sense, how could you become confident about the aesthetic feel of your creations? AI can’t take over your design thoughts and creativity, which is the building block of the UX design process.
So rest assured because jobs that require creative, logical and analytical thinking will remain in the future, but AI will take those which require none of these.
Summing up, designers use lateral thinking, among other methods of design concept development. Whereas AI is pattern based. As a UX designer, you must own the exposure and experiences that make you unique and which is hard to replicate.
