The Crazy Woman Did WHAT?: My Mother

Our wall needed caps and after hearing that I was going to work on it on Friday, my mom volunteered to come over and help (Dad was also hoping to come, but had an appointment). Of the previous 5? 6? 7? wall projects we have constructed, it hasn’t really been my job to mix the mortar, cut, and attach the caps. So I went from unskilled laborer or foreman just like that. I torqued my wrists, again, from mixing mortar and Mom did the heavy labor of bringing and placing all the caps. It was exercise with the best outcome–a beautiful, completed project.

Here’s the before and after pictures!

Thanks, Mom! Really, you should know better, but it was fun working with you!
