    Default Ggggrrrr

    They were supposed to dig and pour the new peirs today for the new house,been watching the local weather all morning,because we had some clouds when I got up,they were saying sprinkles to light rain between 1 and 4 this after noon.
    Sitting here right now with heavy rain/wind and hail! GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRR

    They could have done this on Friday,but he decided to put it off till today due to a chance of rain Friday night.

    There is no greater solitude than that of the Tracker in the forest, unless perhaps it's that of the wolf in the wilderness.

    Good Luck, hate to hear that I have to wait until fall just to get another garage/workshop built. If I get shingles wonder if I could give them to the roof??

    Take it cool nell, your health is the most important thing to remember! You have a long way to go as this is just the foundation.

    Maybe better to rent a RV and live onsite as construction progresses? Might make you feel better to see your house go up. That's what I'd do.

    i agree with bragg...maybe not an rv....but being on youre own property would definitely cheer you up. at least through the week.

    the head moron didn't pour the concrete right? You don't have to be a moron to pour concrete in a hole do you? I thought those mobiles were on slabs?... or at least the one we lived in at one time was.

    Oh, I get it... the anchor piers. Well, you still don't have to be a moron to pour concrete in a hole.
