I approach what I do now and I approach life and business with the mindset that I never

know what's going to happen and I want to create this dynamic network of people that I can

help as much as possible with hopes that in the future, if there comes a time where I need help

or what I'm doing is not working for me or I get hurt that I have somebody who could open the doors

to me and give me an opportunity and help me or treat me the way that I've been able to treat

them at some point throughout their career. Good morning modern craftsman family. It is an

a rare Friday that I'm recording the midweek. We are switching up the schedule a bit. We're

going to be releasing different midweeks at different points during the week. So I had this

I'm trying to get a couple of weeks ahead so I have some in the bank so that I am more efficient

with my time. I'm not running week to week. I have a few in the bank in case something comes up

or I need to be pulled onto a job or do something else. So I had this written earlier in the week

and I'm just sitting down to record it on Friday morning. I had a meeting with an engineer

in an environmental consultant and I decided that I would take the rest of the day to wrap up some

some loose ends get some stuff done around the house. Unfortunately here in New Jersey it looks like

we have rain starting shortly very shortly although you can't see my studio it just looks black.

I have shades covering all the windows too so you can't tell how great it is out but it looks

like we're going to get rain this afternoon or here shortly rain tomorrow and rain Sunday which

does not make for an amazing end of April almost May weekend but we could always use a little bit of

rain especially this time here. I think it gets everything nice and green helps that grass start

growing the flowers start growing and makes for a better springtime all around. The past couple

days I I wrapped up some projects got some final inspections on jobs. I'm getting ready for my next

few small jobs before I start my big job and I'm trying to finalize the exterior cleanup of my house
