The longer this takes the cheaper it sounds to have somebody else do it next time.
Just think of all the fun your having..:laughing:

The fun starts tomorrow when the BX arrives to help lift the 100lb wall caps (i lifted about 20 of them today, brutal) and grade down the back yard to prep for the pavers.Just think of all the fun your having..:laughing:
The home depot is walking distance from this house but let's call it a labor of love.You always be better man for de experience & learning.
Now you not just keypoker on computer you experienced wall designer & builder. Open new website fer wall design & construction. Maybe even charge membership dues.
Learn de Spanish language talkin so you can swing by Homer Desperate and hire crew early morning when best men available.

Wouldn't go so far as to say this is out of my comfort zone except for the discomfort caused by lifting the blocks.Worst case, de wall craps out in few years, you get to take full credit instead of just blaming contractor like most.
Best case, you reached out past normal comfort zone and grabbed on for de ride. Now you know you can generally do instead of just piss and moan you don't know how. Worst thing you did wrong so far was not setting up hot tub first so you can soak sore out of back at end of day. Lot to be said for hot tub, more if it got girls in place and 1 of girls is massage therapist.
