Living the Dream Year 4 Day 113 – Clifty Hill 2 – HVAC Day 7 supply lines complete, Concrete poured in lower-level bathroom

Year 4 Day 113 “Living the Dream”. Wednesday, 8/21/2024. Clifty Hill 2 – This morning was weird. I am up at 4:30am every morning. Of course, the concrete truck was coming this morning at 8am and I slept until 6:30am. What is that about. I never thought I would need an alarm. The concrete company always wants you to call the morning of delivery to verify you want the delivery before they load a truck. They open at 6am. Justin was here at 7:30am and SRM concrete was here at exactly 8am with our two yards of 3500 PSI concrete. Since the order was so small we were charged a delivery fee of $150.00. Total cost of the concrete was $523.64. At the time when the rest of the lower-level floor was poured, we could not do this bathroom as we still needed a rough in plumbing inspection. Justin wheel barrowed the concrete and dumped it in the lower-level bathroom. Steve worked on leveling and jitterbugging. The first few wheelbarrows dumped were way too stiff. We asked for it to be wet up some. It was a little too wet after that. The good thing about wet concrete is that it basically levels itself. The bad thing about really wet concrete is that it tends to have little cracks after it dries.

The rest of the day was spent on hvac duct work. It is hvac day 7 and the supply lines are complete.

Things to ponder today! Have to leave you thinking.
