day one hundred twenty eight // fifty four.

today kind of sucked. it was hot as HELL outside, and jayson and i were working in the front yard, where there is constant sun. it was not fun. we finished grading our little square connecting the sidewalk and the driveway, then we got started laying the bricks. we got all the whole bricks layed, and tomorrow we'll worry about the ones that need to be cut.

so at 12, we all went to lunch as usual. i wasn't feeling well though, so i decided to go home and have a nap. it was longer than i intended, but i felt much better afterwards. so i got back to site around 2, and we began cleaning up the site. we got most of the wood, roof, trash, and other miscellaneous materials up, and into the dumpster or in the wood pile. then our neighbor friend from across the street [not the crack house] came and picked up the big pieces. he comes and gets some scrap every once in a while to build some dog houses that he sells. it's pretty cool that we can reuse the wood, instead of just throwing it away.

then after we cleaned, i went inside & helped josh & lauren do some priming. they were working in the big hallway, and i thought it was going to take forever to paint. but we have these huge 18" rollers that make it much easier, so we got a lot of it done in the hour or so that we were working :)
