"Well Begun Is Half Done" --Aristotle

Wouldn't you know that as soon as our  basement was dug and the forms set for the concrete to be poured, we would have our first snow.  Okay, I know the farmers really need the moisture and I understand that some people even like the white stuff....Then the concrete was poured and it rained.  The forms were stripped and the waterproofing complete and a freak thunderstorm hit our area.  Now our homesite is so muddy the truck driver can't even get on the lot to dump sand for the next concrete pour and our plumber is crying, "too wet".

The funny thing about weather is that someone is praying for rain while another person is praying for sunshine.  Someone likes the snow and another is proclaiming, "Snow makes me cranky!"  One person's needed moisture is another person's delay in construction.  But as in so many things in life--it is what it is.
We are blessed to have begun and trust that the house will be completed in God's timing.


We have begun!



Forms are set and blanketed.
The walls are poured!
It looks like we have some waterproofing.
