Hey great progress so far. Fantastic that you have the missus on board. As far as the heavy lifting requirements, you will find that time is the heaviest. Give it the time to grow, and you will find yourself constantly surprised and rewarded. Keep growing.

My journey

In order to attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd. ~ Miguel de Cervantes
Re-examine all that you have been told... dismiss that which insults your soul. ~ Walt Whitman
I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat. ~ John Milton
