It's been a grind for quite some time on the house build, and this is why it was important to stop and take a break...

I started a house when I was 30. I’m 56 now. As a young architect, it would be my signature achievement. On a beautiful lake, I got so lucky with the site. It is concrete, ahead of its time and is now the envy of many but it was painful in ways. We live it in full time now and will never leave. You learned early what I finally realized. You have to have ‘balance’ … take your time, enjoy this journey. Don’t rush it. As long as you keep it protected from the elements (which your going to be great at soon enough) the key is to enjoy the process. TAKE time to do the things you enjoy along the way because it is a long, long haul. Make those memories and do the things you love. Don’t miss out. Happy to say after the long journey, my Son and I are building a second house in the Vermont mountains. And we’re in no hurry to finish it. As much as I look forward to a completed house with all the comforts, I know now I’ll miss the camp fires of framing scraps and sleeping in the camper along the way. Enjoy.

Thank for giving me the opportunity to watch from your perspective while you kayak. I only went a few times until marriage, work and children kept me from the adventurous outdoor life. I'm disabled now and restricted to my electric wheelchair and hospital bed. I'm grateful for finding your channel. Although I was briefly saddened because I am unable to even walk more than 20 yards, you did bring joy to my heart. Mark ( Bear ) Smith from West Texas

20 above zero is a heat wave in a Alaska! Especially with close to 9 months of snow! I lived in the Big Lake/Houston area for 13 years and by Halloween… full parka snow gear for trick or treat. It’s either 20 below or blizzard! It’s worth though.

You have the right philosophy for how to deal with a large-scale project. At regular intervals, you should disengage and refresh your mind and give your body a break. Fact is, there is no forcing stuff to happen faster in Alaska during October...just gotta take what we get. Push during a break in the weather, recover on sh!tty rainy days.

The order in which you do things has this unique rhythm to it, Tim. I never knew watching someone split kindling, starting a fire, making a single cup of joe with some oven-baked cookies in a camper could be so wildly entertaining...but it somehow is. James Taylor wrote a wonderful song about this many moons ago called "Secret O' Life." It sounds so easy but lots of people fail to follow his lyrics and never do it... "The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time Any fool can do it There ain't nothing to it"

I built my house more than 30 years ago; two other rehabs since then and....DO it while you're young. It just gets harder! For me, the keys were: "White Board": I used it to write out- graph out the "order" of things. To think aloud...and make notes/reminders. "Photos": take lots of photos to chronicle what you're doing, have done; accomplished/Finished. "Blast Building": for some things, recruit some friends to blast out a project ....like pouring concrete, lifting rafters/beams, trenching a foundation perimeter, drywall, etc. My house took me (5) years to complete, 80% solo.

@russclewley6945 4 месяца назад

I built a house... my dream house in 1994 I was in my early 30's raising a young family. It was the best worst time of my life. Building can drain you. I survived but it was rough.... For me at the time I was doing a lot of martial arts training and it was my escape. I just turned 60 a few weeks ago. I wish I could relive it all again. I was too busy and I think took a lot of things for granted. I have the most beautiful wife a man could ask for this world and her love is amazing. Two beautiful children now adults in their 30's. I still feel young in my heart in soul and continue to push myself to do the things I love. Skiing, Snowmobiling, and building cars. I have been blessed.

Lol, well to each his own, but after working 3 jobs to the point of exhaustion, the physical and mental exertion of white water kayaking and partying is not my idea of "recharging"! I'd be thinking of some quiet time, maybe a little extra sleep and relaxation, some vitamin rich food and prayer or meditation, but then, I am an introvert! To me, trying to fill every heartbeat with activity and distraction, is the most exhausting of all! Anyway, I hope you are feeling better and ready to "get'er done"!🤗
