    Im in the thick of dealing with bad decisions causing huge back issues with a family member. PLEASE! Don't be that person. You're too young to be in pain constantly and you don't want to limit your ability to enjoy life and your family because you haven't taken the health of your back seriously. I don't know the deets but I do know your back will only tolerate abuse for so long before it says ENOUGH. I'm old enough to be your Mom so consider this THAT kind of advice. Let you back heal 100% and don't overdo it going forward.

      I'm 64 and you just gave him 100% sound and true advice . He does not want to blow his back out now and sit on sidelines of raising his youngest sons and I have a feeling they are going to be go getters. You know camping , helping dad build and play in the truck , snow skiing. Martial arts is fun but is it worth those other things ? I hope they are still filming when those times get here . They will be good times indeed.

    I think you should hire the people who did the dry wall in your garage. Leo is talking so much more and I am glad you talk to him in adult talk and not baby talk. May I ask what are those balloon things hanging from you windows. Have a lovely day.

    • @repaid1317
      @repaid1317 17 днів тому +3

      Figured I would give you a reply on the "window balloon things". They had them in their house too. It is because they have multiple panes of glass with Argon gas between. The balloon contains argon, the same gas used to fill the gap between the window panes, and is part of a proprietary system to address problems associated with the low atmospheric pressure at high elevations. a small number of windows shipped to high- altitude job sites will develop problems. The balloons are left there till the weather warms and the pressure between the panes has a chance to equalize, then they are removed. Also I hope they also sub out the drywall, but as they are no hurry for the new addition they may not, take care. 😉

Concrete dust and drywall dust everywhere! Not fun, but when we look back, the memories are beautiful! Our first son, 16 months, helping Dad, and with each consecutive build, our daughters getting involved as well! Makes it a family home! Our children are now adults, building onto their own homes to make them functional for their families. Enjoy this time, Leo is learning skills he will take with him when he has a home of his own!

    We had a blizzard in Milwaukee back in the 70s, in April. With the amount of moisture coming up from the gulf that time of year, it dumped 6 feet of snow on us in the suburbs. We lived at the top of quite a steep hill. My dad had to park at the bottom of the subdivision 1/2 mile away on the main road and walk up. Since our house was a tri-level, we had to dig a tunnel to get out through the lower level doors. Seriously tunnel through to get out. Crazy memories as a teen. It did make excellent snow forts though, and amazing sledding for the whole neighborhood.

    Guess with insulation it’s feast or famine.
    I brought a baby into a full fledged construction zone, we had no running water. You survive. Babies survive, even sanity survives. You are lucky, all the guys who worked on our addition were moderately functional alcoholics. Our upstairs flooring was 1/2 inch off from the old floor. Oddly enough. I miss that house. My last kid was born in the downstairs bathroom.
