I just go out in the garage, work on stuff and other things that need to be done. I know how to correct this. And it will be hard. To re-place everything. This is the very definition of being long married. You let the wife make a mess of things and it doesn't matter. She is happy to set the tiles how she wants, off set, and no lines to follow. This makes her happy. Okay. She will never see the corrections done. Yet they will be done. And the final product will be exactly the thing she wanted in the first place. :)

This brings to mind vividly memories of my grandfather shaking his head slowly and muttering "anything for a quiet life..."

You going to need a wet saw, A steady hand, a good back, and a forgiving eye.
Been there done something like that. The sections in this driveway were not square or dimensional. I volunteered to help. Ended up being the saw guy. And yes his wife was right there putting em in and sweeping sand... and yes the car is mine;)

Nice reward for your cover-up work, but well earned. You earned it.

As someone who as done alot of pavers, and has a buddy that specializes in high end paver patios.....that makes me cringe.

I agree with whoever said to put something under the pavers as a base to level the concrete.

You also need to stagger them a little....too many LOOONNNGGGG straight lines/seams

And if you want it to last and not fight weeds in the joints use poly sand

I often admire member's photo subjects when they post something cool, like a nice car, or tractor, or shop. The mustang is real nice, but the place in the background is sweet!

Do wives have a training class where they learn how to push husbands into tasks? Mine is remarkably good. And her concept of time is remarkably bad. :)
