Yikes

Day one of the reno and you can't believe how much work got done. We've (they, because I didn't actually DO anything except supervise.) taken a perfectly functional space and turned it into chaos. We are on a very short time line and my job is to grease the wheels behind the scenes (feed the troops), make sure materials get ordered and delivered, and get us moved out of here. It seems like way too much to accomplish but eventually we will get there.
Yeoman's duty performed by Derek, Mark, Melynda, Don, and Jim. A million, trillion thank yous.
And we need Alan!

You can only get done what you can get done - and in the case of you and Jim and your team, that's sure to be about ten times more than anyone else could do! I can imagine you're tired and maybe a bit overwhelmed, but you know what you're doing and it's going to turn out great. I can't wait for the housewarming party! Love to you both.

A tough question, Jives... are you truly on a short timeline? Or could you let yourself off the hook a little, chill a bit, enjoy the roses?

Just askin'

Frase, you're kidding right? I am the original over-achiever married to the king of optimists. Yikes indeed.
