    oh sure. I hadn’t thought about that. But still, I think it will be cool to see the transformation over time. I think that’s why a lot of us love those home improvement shows.

    How i would approach the inquiry is - is there a way to cover the ding, like some art or magnets? If it’s not coverable with something that brings joy… then… consider $150 and break it into days. Like how many years will you have it most likely?...

    Replace your bedroom windows with a big screen that shows video of an outdoor scene.

    Then mulched the old driveway:

    And are relandscaping everything, including adding a new pathway to the front door:

    I knowwww! So crazy. But I think I’ll spend $20k+ on the full solution, rather than only tackling the drainage issue.

    Fruit trees are a great idea! I don’t know about hanging out in the yard but a fence would probably help with that. I want to paint a mural on the carport we might build, I think… Something colorful, beautiful, interesting. Not sure about a statue but similar vibe....

    I agree with many people here about moving the driveway. I think you’ll be happier, it will look better, and will probably increase the resell value of the house. As for what to do with that space, do you hang out in your front yard? Do you want to?...

    I’m for moving the driveway to the other side. I grew up in a house where my bedroom was the only one at the front of the house and it overlooked a beautiful yard. Imagining you’ll value the view and your home much more....
