Oh no

It looks like a storm knocked over a tree at my parents beach house and broke a couple of windows. Now we will have to find some replacement windows in virginia beach and have someone install them. We do have a person that is paid to keep an eye on the place, and he will have to be there when they are fixed. In the mean time, he has boarded them up well and so far everything is okay. I can only hope it stays that way. The local police have agreed to drive by a couple of times a day and make sure no one takes advantage of the situation.

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.

Work

Well business is doing well, but the weather is not being cooperative. There has been nothing but rain, and just when it clears up and the ground dries up, it rains again. That makes it very difficult to pour concrete. Other then that, I have had a lot of new contracts for us and the spring and summer work looks to be really good this year. There is a lot of building and reconstruction going on. I am certainly glad we do a little bit of everything. It keeps us busy when everyone else is floundering.

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.
