Building progress? (of different sorts)

Well, there has been very little progress made on the house in the last couple weeks and it doesn't look good for the rest of this week either.  Partly because of work, partly because of weather... here are a couple of pictures of what the weather has been like:

Believe it or not, this was the nicer day (temperature wise) out of the two pictures.  Our house is out there somewhere!  I even enhanced the photo so you could at least see the power box!

-48 when this picture was taken.  Nice.  The sun is great here, but so deceiving when it comes to temperature.

And little work has been done on the house partly because I was away with my bride on an annual getaway (continuing to build toward a great marriage):

This sure beats a weekend in Edmonton like we've done a few times!

And because of the weather I get a little extra time to build my kids up & build with them (lego!) instead:

Building a tow truck with Mario!  

I think I'll brace myself and head out to the site on Saturday - no excuses not to (I'll have already put in more than enough work hours before then).  I've been getting pretty frustrated & discouraged with the lack of progress on the house.  I told Super Lu in the fall that I need to learn (with life in general) to push hard when there is momentum and be disciplined when there isn't.  I'm definitely being tested on that!

Later,
I.B.
