Very happy

I am very happy right now. The weather has gotten so good and work is speeding along at a great pace. We have already caught up on everything that was behind. The rain had kept us from pouring cement on a couple of jobs, but that is no longer a problem. I have four new jobs waiting for the crews to start and can even do some hiring as well. These new jobs are very large and will help employment in my area in a major way. Construction has been down a bit over the winter, but is looking much better now. My staff is ecstatic over this as much as I am. Things are definitely looking up for the spring and summer months.

Should have stayed in bed

I can see today is going to be a bad day. Already it has been horrible. Everyone I have come into contact with since I left the house, has been in a bad mood and just plain nasty. It seems like everyone at work is in a bad mood as well. Not that they get nasty with my, but you understand what I am saying. No one seems to want to be here today. No one seems to have wanted to leave home today period. The people at the gas station were in a bad mood as well as the other customers.

There was almost an altercation in the parking lot at the gas station as I was leaving. Fortunately, a cop just happened to pull in for his coffee (I’m guessing) and the people went to their own cars and left. Part of my just wants to go home and go back to bed. I am praying the day gets better.

Snow

Snow…really in march? We don’t get any all winter season barely and now we are going to have snow? This winter has been really wacky. The first half was barely winter and the second half has been winter/spring weather. I really wish mother nature would get it together and stick to one season at a time. The trees and flowers aren’t even sure if they are supposed to be growing or not.

I hope this doesn’t have an adverse effect on my garden. I planted bulbs in the fall for spring growth and they look like they were already coming up before the snow started. I will be very upset if they are harmed by the cold weather. I might have to take umbrage with mother nature for it. lol

Almost over

Winter is almost over and I am so happy. I cannot wait until boating season, and fishing season, and camping season. I am sick of the cold weather already. I cleaned out the garage and got everything prepped and ready for a trip of any kind as soon as the weather permits. There have been warm days already, but usually it is raining and they are always during the week. The weekends are always cold, cold, cold. I think a camping/fishing trip will be first on the agenda. Just little while longer and then we can go. My wife is excited too, because she loves to camp and fish as well.

Sanctuary

garden

Beautiful garden

I wish I had thought of this when I planned out my garden. This is really amazing. I know that we don’t have the room for this kind of garden yet, but if we ever move I will have something similar. It gives me a good idea of what to look for in a house for us. Of course, there will have to be a yard for kids as well. I am not sure if I will get this garden until we have kids and they are grown and gone though.

My wife would probably be too afraid to have a pond like this with kids. I think though, if you teach them to swim in their first year, you can eliminate worry like that. Also, locking the doors that lead to a garden like this would be wise. I will show it to her and see what she thinks. I like it though. I like it a lot!
