46.  With the right furniture, landscaping and a few other elements, we can take advantage of yard space and  extend our homes to take advantage of nature. You do not have to settle for a simple patio or deck. Today, you can build an outdoor living room or kitchen. And a well-designed outdoor living area can boost the value of your home if you need to sell it, too.
47. Landscaping on a budget can be a terrible idea, as you may recall from the bill to fill your small flowerbed last spring. But fear not, creative one. With a good plan and a little wisdom, you can create a stunningly landscaped yard that will make others envy. Here are tips for keeping within your budget.
48. For the adventurous do-it-yourselfers, there is nothing stopping you from building your own BBQ pit or pizza oven. Both work on very simple principles. All it takes is some time, energy and the right materials. Some of us might not be quite so handy. Fortunately, many companies sell and will even build or install a pit or oven in your yard.
49. The days are getting longer and a little warmer and you are just starting to see the first buds on the early blooming trees. This means spring is near, and for gardeners, it cannot come soon enough. Fortunately, there are plenty of things you can do in the days before the soil is finally warm enough to plant in.
50. Water may or may not inspire wisdom, but it certainly adds entertainment value to the garden. If you are wondering what you can do to enhance your yard, or add something to your plain old patio, a water feature may be the answer. Adding a water feature is a reliable way to create interest and a cool focal point outdoors without resorting to dragging the flat screen outside.

 “It’s already six o’clock. My dear son must be on the way home now.” At the doorstep sat an old man with grey hair, speaking in a low voice. In the kitchen, his wife was busy preparing the dinner happily. “These are all my son’s favorite dishes. I must get everything ready before he returns home so that he can have a good meal.”
  It was getting darker. The neighbors all finished their dinners and began to enjoy the TV programs. “There must be a traffic jam.” The old man comforted himself. Despite the heavy snow, he kept waiting and waiting. Suddenly the phone rang. He answered it eagerly, but after a short while he hung up the phone slowly. It was his son, a boss of a big company. He said he had decided not to come back home but to fly to Europe for an important business meeting.
  On the table were the well-prepared dishes. The old couple sat in silence, disappointed and sad. It was a year since they last saw their son. Tonight was the New Year’s Eve—a get-together time for a family!
