I have DVR. Have stuff saved up. ;-)

Also a nice stack of library books. And notebooks to write in. And music to listen to. And plenty of house work.

Also coffee and chocolate.

All the good things in life! Well...minus the house work...

I R TARD. We did another 6 hour concrete pouring session today. It actually went more smoothly, and quickly than the last time because the kids got a couple of batches of materials ready for me, so that when I began, I just kept going, and they kept making up batches of stuff to keep me supplied in gravel, sand and Portland cement. When a batch was done, we'd pour it into the wheelbarrow, and I'd start another one.

We did 5 batches today. SirKit had changed the design a bit so that we wouldn't need as much concrete as last time, on the other half of that area behind the garage. We're gonna go out tomorrow morning to mix and pour the concrere for the last post to go under the lower deck. We're going to Paul's girlfriend's parents house for her Law School Graduation party tomorrow afternoon, so we didn't want to work too long in the morning.

When we have another nice long sunny day, we'll start the pour on the next section of 'rat slab'.
