I decided daily updates are not practical and really, unnecessary because the changes are so slight now that you would need better photos to see the changes. But changes there are...The footings have been poured/laid, whatever...they are there ;-) and week 3 will see the building of the retaining wall and the back filling of the dirt once the wall is complete. Windows and door have been ordered with the hope the framing will begin at the end of the week and be done into week 4.
It really is amazing just how much planning goes into building a house and how all parts are interrelated. Kind of like this world if we could just figure that part out. The notion that we can accomplish anything without others is absurd, we realize that in building but not in life...hmmmm...go figure. But then with notions like, "Troops to Teachers" with no competency exams, it becomes painfully obvious how out of touch we are. It is amazing how everyone is an expert on how to teach simply because they went to school, could you imagine telling a doctor what to and how to do something simply because you've been to one before? That simplistic thought is dangerous for an already troubled institution...yet there will be some who think it is a brilliant idea, which is REALLY the scary part.
Funny, this did ot start out about politics but once I made the analogy about building my mind took off ;-) I just changed the title to give you all fair waring as to what you were about to encounter. I am sure this will not be the last time, so be forewarned ;-)
