Day 41 – For The Love of Clay…

I really wanted to move the laundry room. Great idea. No big deal right? Just add a new drain over to the new area, send some water over then and hook them up. I mean the jack hammering wasn’t so bad, was it sweetie? The blisters and feeling that you are still vibrating a week later will go away soon, right? Sounded simple enough to me until I realized that we needed to dig 8 inches of dirt out of the trench, well not really, dirt as I soon discovered…clay. I love clay, especially hard, wet, heavy clay. So much fun. I don’t remember the last time I had sweat dripping into my eyes from so much exertion. Oh yeah, and R discovered that he hadn’t jackhammered quite enough concrete out and got to hack out the rest with a sledgehammer and some choice words.
