Working, working, working!

Lately, Derek's been doing some work around the house at my parents'. And he's been doing an EXCELLENT job! He's fixed doors; made a gate in their fence; dug out a patio; re-arranged the sprinkler system to accomodate the patio; repaired the sub-floor in the second bedroom; cut, sanded and stained shelves for a pantry cubboard; repaired grout lines in their master bath (the professionals didn't use silicone in the joints so every joint cracked, dumb professionals!); and now he's filling in the hole he dug for the patio with road mix in preparation for the cement to be poured. I'm so impressed with how much he can do, how quickly he learns how to do it, and how well he does! A lot of the stuff he's been doing around here, he's never done before. He's got one of those genious brains thats able to just look at a problem, think about it, maybe reference a book, and then do the job well! I've got to do a couple of trial runs before I get a good end result. He's the best and I love him!
