Eeek! At least when you get done you can put nice strikethroughs on them. That really helps the feeling of accomplishment. :)

Seeing your list reminds me I need to update mine. I'm out of the timeline originally covered -- we poured concrete yesterday! -- and I'm going to get confused again.

Or stay confused, rather.

Let's be honest, here.

Aye, I've been following your progress - it's quite exciting. Wish I was closer to offer hands...

And isn't confusion the default state for humans? I thought it was...

Wish I was closer to offer hands...

Right back at you! I'd learn things, too -- there are quite a few areas where you know so much more than me.

And isn't confusion the default state for humans?
I think it comes in degrees. :P

I've a great deal of experience in knowing how not to do things, mostly through having done them and going "oh ah, that didn't work at all now, did it".

In return I could learn stuff from you too, so it'd be good for swapsies. Perhaps what we should do is have Kathryn and I move closer... :)

Yeah, the list on bedroom one is my fave.
