Construction

The end of school brought with it a wonderful month of summer vacation. And what have I done with it you ask? - work! We're moving two weeks today so it's a mad dash to finish enough of the house to live in. This means plenty of good stuff for me to do. The great thing is not only do I get paid, but I learn stuff that will be very handy when I'm older and have to manage my own household.

Mostly I've been doing carpentry. Some stuff I've done lately:

- Installing Doors
- Assembling and Installing Cabinets
- Finish carpentry - elaborate moulding around doors; crown moulding.

I really like the fine detail work of finishing. I'm not the biggest dude, so stuff like framing would be hell for me. But working with small pieces of wood, at precisions of less than an eighth of an inch, I can do. I've always loved details, I guess it just fits.

In other news, the pondering over a career in medicine continues. And the scales continue to tip...

Peace,
