The concrete will take a lot longer to set up and you have more time to rest and more time to work it. Good luck...:)Suzi<br /><br />P.S.

He's actually got one more pour ...ROFL!! Yes!<br /><br />He's actually got one more pour almost that length left to get to the road. And I think he intends to ask a few more relatives over to help.<br /><br />I don't mean to make him sound inconsiderate. After we started working on it, he could see it was going to be hard. And he did thank me several times, and seems genuinely grateful that I tried so hard.<br /><br />Oh, and before we started he did cut the board he was using to smooth it on the first pass so that it was barely long enough to reach, to make it a little lighter for me. I think that was thoughtful.ms.shandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10804709919987506302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492301101861096075.post-74839377675290278772009-08-09T10:01:50.662-04:002009-08-09T10:01:50.662-04:00Next time he does something like that I'd tell...Next time he does something like that I'd tell him to get more help or he can really push the limits by doing it himself...lol. :)SuziAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492301101861096075.post-16362321714480019752009-08-09T09:51:31.162-04:002009-08-09T09:51:31.162-04:00So true about kids Suzi. Working in education, yo...So true about kids Suzi. Working in education, you develop some level of immunity. But when you are the only one recieving thatkind of treatment, you realize you are standing out a lot, and that what they are rudely expressing, many adults are probably quietly thinking. In my situation it makes you think of things like, job security. LOL!<br /><br />Plus, I'll admit that even though its form children, it does touch the self esteem in a subtle way.<br /><br />As for the concrete, my Dad has always been one to push the limit. He figures out exactly how much he and those around him can do, then pushes everything just a little bit farther. Whether its hiking, biking, building, or anything else, thats just the way he rolls.ms.shandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10804709919987506302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492301101861096075.post-54954585568213163042009-08-09T07:37:57.048-04:002009-08-09T07:37:57.048-04:00Years ago Art Linkletter had a segment on his show...Years ago Art Linkletter had a segment on his show called "Kids say the darndest things." It was hilarious to hear how the young children answered his adult questions. Too bad that innocence does not carry over past puberty. Kids become so self-conscious, often times their self-image is close to zero. The unfortunate result is that they then resort to cruelty and peer pressure. I hope you can weather this storm...it has to be very nerve-racking. Sometimes I think they do it as a method of survival in an increasingly uncivil school atmosphere. But, then again, I know it was common when I was a teen too...and that wasn't yesterday, I guarantee...lol...more like half a century...yikes, I can't believe I said that.<br /><br />I've poured concrete hundreds of times over my carpentry career. I hate it with a passion...especially in the summer when it sets up much faster and you have to work that much faster...no breaks or anything. You say you poured 90 feet...was that a driveway that's 90 feet long?...and how wide? Hell girl!, I'd be crying too if there was just me and one other person. That's extrememly hard work even for an old goat like me that has done it many times. You should not feel guilty at all. Your dad bit off more than he could chew is all. I take it he doesn't pour concrete every day either...lol. I bet you're sore all over by now...sheesh. <br /><br />I'm glad the hair is almost gone. I wish I could get rid of mine. :)SuziAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492301101861096075.post-57879983876874752492009-08-07T23:33:52.980-04:002009-08-07T23:33:52.980-04:00Thanks Amy. :)
