More equipment

Posted on May 17th, 2012

Well it looks like I am going to have to find more used construction equipment for sale. We wont the bids for some very large jobs and now my hubby is back to work. I have already found a backhoe for sale and the price was reasonable. I am very happy that we were able to secure the jobs we got. They will last a couple of years as they are really big jobs and that is important, not just for the company but for it’s employees. Keeping them working so we don’t lose them is imperative, because they are very good and not easily replaced.

I am going to be looking for a couple of used trucks for sale as well as another used skid steer. After that, I think we will be okay, with the exception of some power tools, like jack hammers and such that might be necessary. I am not going to worry about those until the time come though.

Mothers Day

Posted on May 15th, 2012

Mothers Day was awesome. My kids made me breakfast in bed after I got to sleep in until after ten o’clock. Then we had a lazy day playing board games since it was rainy outside. It was a lot of fun spending time with the kids just doing family fun stuff at home. No TV, just us. There isn’t anything better. I hope everyone else had a great Mothers Day as well.

Redoing the patio

Posted on May 7th, 2012

Okay, we decided to redo the back patio and pool area. The pool itself will stay the same, but the back side of the house is going to be totally different. We have decided to hire an architect to help redesign the back portion of the house. I was just not happy with what we have been able to do ourselves and neither is my husband. So we are going to see if he can incorporate what we have bought with what he has in mind to do.

I think it is mostly the patio area that needs an expert opinion by an architect. I hope he has a good idea from the pictures we sent him. He will be coming to see the house in person later in the week. The design of the patio needs to coincide with the oriental design of the garden though. I cannot wait to see what he has in store for the house.

Moving

Posted on May 4th, 2012

My cousin is moving to LA. She had her internet and cable turned off already and the movers that were supposed to show up never did. She had to call me to find her new LA movers fast. That is okay though because I was able to find exactly what she needed that day and she is already on her way with a good Los Angeles moving company. She is very happy to move to LA with her job. It means better pay for her and a promotion to boot.

Her mother is ecstatic about the move as she lives there and will be able to see her and the kids more often. She called me to thank me for helping her daughter find Los Angeles movers to do the job. I told her that it was not a problem and easily done, her thanks were appreciated but not necessary. I hope everyone has a great day.

Old friends

Posted on May 4th, 2012

It is really cool when you find an old friend that you have lost touch with. I found my best friend from junior high on Facebook today and I am so happy. She helped me through a very hard time during my childhood and I am so happy to have her back in my life. I wish we lived in the same state so I could see her and just give her a hug and say thank you in person.
