Getting closer ...

We are getting closer to being ready to pour again! Yippee! This morning, we worked for about an hour and finished up the "window boxes". Then, together, we put plyforms up on half of the wall. They are too heavy for me to lift by myself, but after they were up, I was able to load the other side with pvc, straps, rebar, etc. I ran out of daylight, but next we will be able to put the insulation on and then put the other plyform on to finish the sandwich.

John teaches classes in the prison on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, so he shifts his hours on those days which gives us some time in the mornings to do work. The kids and I also shift our homeschool hours to match.

We have friends coming next week who are willing to help out, so we are kind of hoping to pour this week yet and then be able to pour again next week. We'll see how that goes. The weather has been absolutely fabulous for working - NO complaints now :)

Blessings!

  1. That is great that you guys can match your husband's hours that way. It is one of the great benefits of homeschooling. It sounds like your foundation will be done soon. Are you building a 2 story house or 1? Good job to you both (and the kids) you are doing great! Continued blessings on this journey!
