the Artist
I guess a new post was due! How did that happen? How are you in these crazy times? We are hanging in there. Lost some projects and crew (no they didn’t get sick) during this pandemic. But we are recovering nicely. We have work lined up into this winter and we have signed on some great subcontractors.
The Carpenter has had to put in many long six day work weeks during the pandemic.. to keep the projects in process going during this pandemic. I’m hoping between those projects currently wrapping up and the new crew he can return to a five day work week. A girl can hope.
I’ve been supporting where I can. Customer planning meetings. Trips to granite and tile shops with customers, accounting, advertising, making lunches, and taking care of our home and the “labbie” girls.
And along with all that… worrying about the Carpenter being “out there” during this pandemic. Buying materials and supplies, meeting with homeowners and potential customers.
“God guards you from every evil, he guards your very life. He guards you when you leave and when you return, he guards you now, he guards you always.
Psalm 121:8 - The Message ”
Other then bid work there is “no working at home” for him.
He has stayed strong. HIs resilience continues to amaze me. Me I am not so resilient. At times I’m a “worry wreck.” But every morning when the Carpenter pulls his rig out of the driveway and heads down the road I cover him in prayer. For him. For his old truck and trailer. And thankfully they both keep on going!
My motto these days.. “one day at a time.” It has served me well. And well.. a snuggle with a sweet lab doesn’t hurt!
