Using the leftover cork from the Road House entryway project, Maya and I installed it in the bathroom of her tiny house this afternoon. Because it is such a small space, it only took a few hours and the results were quite nice. Maya did virtually all of the work while I simply offered guidance. I love how proficient she has become in all things construction related. Kyle, who joined us here for lunch, is also becoming quite proficient in the trades. If not for the fact that they have full-time jobs, I think the three of us could build the River House ourselves. Speaking of which, framing on the new house is set to commence next week barring further weather, supply chain, or lack of truck driver delays.

I spent 90 minutes on the soccer pitch this morning as my team had only 11 players. We actually started the match with 10. Our opponents had 8 subs and after 30 minutes they had worn us down. It was demoralizing as they scored 5 goals over the next 40 minutes of play. In the last 20 minutes, however, they also became fatigued and we were able to score twice which took the sting out of the loss. Next week will be the season’s last game, and I am hoping we will not be similarly shorthanded.
