Jacque and I stayed home again this weekend in order to mix and pour some more concrete to add support for her new sewing room on the corner of the deck.
It actually RAINED on and off all day. We mixed and poured 8 sacks of "Sac-Crete" at 80 pounds per sack. Great reason for the old backs to go out, but we tried as best we could to use our legs to do most of the actual heavy lifting and so far, so good. I'm still walking upright and Jacque seems to be doing fine, too, several hours after we stopped for the day. Only a few more sacks of concrete to go and we should be ready to jack up the floor joists about 1/2 inch or so to level it and get back to finishing off the room.
