Not to pee in anyone's cornflakes... Did you look up the meaning of the word "Progress" before you named this video?  LAUGH@


Congrats! I'm so jealous.
I have to wait 'till after my daughter's wedding in June to, as the wife puts it, "See if we can still afford it"

Actually seeing something happen is progress!! The bulldozer, though it only pushed out a stump, was a sign that something is happened. It's not just paper work anymore!!

Start collecting those old kitchen cabinets and plan out your work area. I now enjoy my garage in the winter and I could run AC at this point but I doubt I will ever get the fridge and bathroom!
