04 May 07 To The Work

We drove back to Stockton yesterday, eager to monitor the work progress by contractors on our house.  It was a relief to see that work had been done in our absence.  We scheduled some texture and plumbing work for next week and dove in to some much needed yard work.

After driving 6 hours we had some energy to expend.  We only worked for about 5 hours but total productivity might have equaled a full day’s work.

It reminded me of the first day of work on our Mexico Mission trips.  Driving to the airport, flying to Long Beach, driving to Ensenada seems to take forever.  The moment we hit the ground we are ready to strap on tool belts and get to work.  We seem to get a lot of work done the first afternoon / night.

You wake up the next day and are very sore.
