My mother sent me some money for my birthday and then sent me some more, for Christmas. I have not decided what I want to do with it yet, but am leaning towards buying myself some new iron entry doors. I had been thinking about it anyway, but did not want to spend all that money at once.

I will actually have enough money now to get the iron gates too that will make the whole front of the house look more uniform. I currently have a chain link gate and it would look cheap if I left it after having iron doors put in.

I am going to make a trip to the local store to see if I can find iron entry doors and iron gates that I really like and that will not go over the amount that I have budgeted including the money from my mother. I think that I have heard that if you go in the basement of the door and gate store, they have some older and cheaper floor models that have been marked down in price and they make work better for me. I do not mind buying floor models, they may be a little banged up, but they are going outside anyway, so they are not going to stay pristine forever.
