Hi Rene, hope the remodel goes well and it's wrapped up soon so you can get back to playing outside :)
Hi Debby! Thanks it will be nice to have it finished. I am however glad that we're not working non stop on it and we're doing other things. I actually had to put my foot down the other night...lol Hubs will work 15+ hour days and drag me along with him. He started mixing up thinset at 8:30pm, after we'd worked all day. I told him I was exhausted, my back was killing me and I knew he was about done in too. I then said we were not going to continue like this, we're not 20 anymore and our bodies can't take it. He's been quitting by 5pm now. Thankfully! I think he's glad I set limits, kind of...maniac! :gig
 
Good morning Rene! I hope you have a great day too! Since the wind blew you guys back inside might as well do some more remodeling work! 20 to 30 mph wind and outside work not too productive! 😊
Thanks Barry! Definitely not productive and downright miserable. Lol

Good for you for setting limits, it's easy to get hurt pushing things along too hard.

Your husband sounds like mine. He thinks that he has to go to bed at 7 pm like he's in his 70's or something and I'm supposed to work with him for 15 + hours and if I take a break he gets bent out of shape. It's annoying to know that I know my limits and apparently he doesn't have any. Grr
