Yesterday I worked on the porch again with the Sledge Hammer, after 3 hrs of striking the ciment, I finaly completly knock the Cement down, and I yeld at the top of my lungns and neighbors were looking at me weird, so what if I'm happy to be done. Also during those 3 hours I received a couple of visit, first one was my next door neighbor, not the one who look at me weird but the other one, stop to tell me I was doing a good job and as he as lived next door since 1969 he says that this house was already an old house, told him that I had heard from a contractor that it might of been built in the 30's, and he answered it was before that, early 20's, that mean's in the year 2020's this house will be around 100 years old, (antique house). The second visitor was a police officer, it at been the third time he was passing in front of the house that day, when he stop, told myself he probably wants to see my building permit, but no he wanted to know and see more about what I was doing and to tell me I was very brave to take on a project like this, told him that if I didn' it would of probably colapse by next summer, and as we spoke you could see cars passing by the house all slowing down, told the officer that he should come park in the driveway more often, as is rare we see cars going this slow, as a matter of fact never seen then going this slow, but never asked me for the permit, but did introduce himself to me.
Today I'm doing a split shift at work so that Saturday where I was suppose to work instead of today, me and the family are going down to Massechusette for brother-in-laws wedding, kinda anxious to go as we will see grandma S. , haven't seen her in almost 4 years now, we miss her.
Well going to go watch a movie before the kids get home from school, and at thi rate I'll be writting a book, this is the most I've written in my life.
So bye and stay tune for the finishing picture of the demolition in the next blog.

Peace an Quiet
Today, my wife started her new job where I work, and I'm only starting to work at 2:00pm, that means with her gone to work and the 3 kids gone to school, I can actualy rest with no one to bother me, so I'm free to go on the computer, watch TV and sing in the house without hearing them complain. I'm also resting from the work on the porch, can't start building the the one till end of October, almost done taking it down, another good day of so it will be ready to rebuild before snow falls, I hope. I'm anxious to see my wife later today to know how her day went, hope she likes it and we can work side by side for a long time, or until she finds a good teaching job, I will support her a 100% if that happen. Well time to whippe up a snack and watch a movies, maby one that we got as a gift yesterday from Vaarbaby, thank you, we do appreciate, and you can come over to visit any time, and I'm not saying this because of the gift, I say this because we love you very so much, just let us know I'll make a sound proof room for you so you don't have to listen to the kids yelling at each other again, ha,ha,ha, well to the movie I go, bye.
