I’m quite sure all of this has been foreplay.
Thus far, we have been playing in a delightful pile of mud. We have thrown out and tossed out decades of life. We have had trenches dug and pipes buried in a seemingly-endless treasure hunt.
We have now signed a contract and the house-building is set to begin. Did you hear that? House building? Foundation to be poured. Get it? Permanent. Done and done.
Last changes have been made to the plans (although I cannot imagine more are not going to happen). Items have been pulled out of the contract and shoved in to the contract. Responsibilities, dates, expectations and reality are on a collision course.
Every cent that goes out is gone for good. Do we have enough set aside to live? That’s just one of the little questions that permeates our current existence.
In order to have solar power, we may have to cut down more trees. I do not know if I am willing to cross that line. Big decision.
My gosh this is really, really big. If we screw this up, bummer for us.
The next 6 months need to be full of loud discussions and proactive positioning. If we sit meekly in the corner, then we deserve whatever we get. I need to go run through my vocal exercises. Loud and large and clear and strong!
