OM GOSH! THEY ALL SPOTTED YOU! WM. Did your heart sink?

Guess even pulling out G&P wouldn't have helped at a moment like this???

(Chuckling here!)

What we ALL do for a laugh. Thanks for this one for us all!

DID YOU BACK AWAY SLOWLY? HA! #1292041

By thier expressions I can tell they are worried that you will walk in the fresh cement.

Wm, you must be feeding the workers kool-aid and cookies. Otherwise why would they be working in front of your house for so long.

FOur weeks?? and more to go yet!!! Good to know that you atr keeping your sense of humor during the inconveniance.
