The Wall is Down

This morning when I got up, took my cup of coffee and sat in the living room watching the kids playing video
games, getting the nerves to go bang on the cement porch. My challenge was to break down a wall that even the Jackhammer could not break, after pounding on the wall for about an hour with a sledgehammer, it started to crack, I felt like Rock in the 4th movie when he fought the Russian, when he finally made him bleed. Told my wife I did it and will continue until its down, I pounded on the wall till late afternoon , about 3 O'clock Canadian time in the Atlantic. Walk inside the house out of breath, and told my wife I've done it. I took down that 6 inch thick, 5 feet tall and 10 feet in length wall down and I was darn proud of myself, even if I had not one inch of strength left in my body. Tomorrow I'll continue what I started today, and that's to fill in the hole in the driveway with the dirt in the porch, and maybe by the end of the day tomorrow I'll have a good part of my demolition done and cleaned to build up the new porch. Have a good break.

just to say there is a mistake in my post it is Rocky I wanted to write and not Rock.

Good job! I know that wasn't easy in the least! I wish I was there to see the progress! -Not hearing the banging noise doesn't hurt my feelings though.. hehe.. Keep up the good work. Before you know it, you'll be lounging on your new super-suave porch. (Invite me over please!)
