That which excites us.

I find it strange that, as the years pass, I am excited by things that just wouldn't have done it for me when I was younger. Today, I found myself in my own personal Cialis commercial as I walked into the basement after having been away for a couple days. Sheet rock!



Who would have thought that sheet rock would make me so happy. The basement is now rolling along at full speed. The initial inspection, before sheet rock, was a joke and I really have to question why one has to have an inspection. Ok, I know the answer to that one...inspection = increase in property valuation = increase in tax revenue for the town.

With a little luck, we can start painting in about a week and then get the carpet in place. I'm a little jealous that my boys are going to have such a great "kids cave".

  1. When you first start the house you wonder, how can the house be as big as it's supposed to be on that little concrete pad, but it always comes out right. Once you get a defination with walls, it all falls in place. Such and exciting time.

    1. Thanks Mark. It really is much cooler once you can see the shape more defined.
