Each Day – How I’m Going to *Try* To Do It All

It is going to be an intense few months around here.  Keeping Gadanke awesome as it grows and grows!  Building a home.  Connecting with our community.  Getting planes up and out of the way.  Figuring out how to heat a whole hangar just a little and the home inside of it a bit more… in the greenest way possible.  Juggling balls I’ve never even seen before.

We want to be out of the tire house this late autumn.

We want to be all nestled in newly remodeled here when it starts to snow:

We know.  It’s CRAZY.

Our motto is going to have to be by Thomas Jefferson:

I’m a great believer in luck and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.

“We can do this!” the cheer squad shouts.

The cheer squad is me; the cheer squad is Martin.  Every so often, we have to be really loud.

We sat down to play Settlers of Catan with some friends after a week of work (love that game!).  I would have worried about Martin’s nose landing right in the plate of watermelon as he nearly nodded off.  But I was too busy pinching my own arm.  ”Stay awake, Katie, stay awake.”

We lost miserably.

But then we took a break.  Taking time to rest is always so important.

THANKFULLY, we have a strict rule : Sundays are always free. We’re not afraid to head down to the campground for an afternoon ice cream cone.  Naps are our best friends.  There is always time for dinner with friends or a 4th of July family reunion in the mountains.

Too bad it’s Monday.

I’m just kidding! The incredible thing is that all day, I’m doing what I love or I’m working toward it.

“We can do this!”

I’d like to compile a list of questions and answers you guys might have. About running a small business.  About the hangar.  Oh gosh – maybe even about my favorite colors or about Martin and me in general.  Will you let me know in the comments?
