So my guys have cost a couple grand since Wednesday. Messed up on a concrete prep that cost me 1700 in extra concrete then took out a 500 dump truck tire with a tractor. And these are just the things I know about.

I have spent the last 5 days cleaning and re-organizing my Garage. Yes it took five days to get everything put away and EVERYTHING cleaned !!!
I still have a little to do but I will finish it today.

Oh, by the way, I had no offer of help. In fact IIRC... she only came back there twice to 'see' what I was doing.
She was busy planting a 1" trunk, about 5' tall stick of a Redbud tree and watering her garden and other plants around the property. She even dug the 'entire' hole by herself, took about four days.

That ground is super hard and rocky... it took me several mornings to dig the hole and another morning to plant the tree. That pick ax probably weighs almost half as much as I do... at least it felt like it did 🤣

For that she would be digging many years, many years...….

Our 'ground' if you want to call it that is very resistant to being dug in... extremely hard, compact, and full of rocks!

Well, the hiring pool is not what it used to be. Between that and wages so inflated the good guys are at the big companies here. It's a different world than when I was in California. There it seemed I could steal a guy or find one. Here it's damn near impossible.
 
So I went to depot today to grab some garage cabinets and a bench. Depot doesn't stock the white cabinets anymore so I went to lowes, they stock crappy small ones. Ended up buying white kitchen cabinets and a counter top. Cost me 1200 bucks for 6 feet of cabinets, counter and upper cabinets. Things are getting way to expensive.
