Happy Labor Day 2019!

Mortgage and Lending with George Souto NMLS #65149 FHA, CHFA, VA Mortgages NMLS #65149

Labor Day this year is a labor day for me.  I have been renovating one of my bathrooms and I am trying to finish most on it this week.  Hopefully today I will get a majority of what is left done.

Normally we plan on having the family over and putting some food on the grill.  But this year everyone will be on their own, unless they want to come over and labor with me as well.

I hope that each and everyone of you spend this Labor Day doing what you enjoy, you have earned it.  Whatever you do make sure this is a safe and happy Holiday for you and your family!!!

Hi George that's pretty much what Gary is doing right now too - laboring! He just re-did a quest bath and it turned out great! Now he's out in the yard laboring again on a few leaks.  Good luck on your bath and be sure to show some pics!

I am spending labor day looking out my kitchen window at a crew of guys trying to locate a water line leak, and hopefully repair it.  Big hole in corner of my lot, about 3 feet deep.  They are still digging!

George Souto - Bathroom remodel? I feel your pain! Mine started last May and it still isn't done. And, I hired professional (ha-ha-ha) contractors!

May your work be done with quality and satisfaction the only way that George knows how!

George, I have been trying to find a Contractor to do our bathroom for about a year now... quietly we have been buying all the material.... So let me know how I can entice you to come and do our bathroom?:)) Food, wine and money? Let me know. Happy Labor Day to you, Endre

Hi George,
Hope you made lots of progress on your bathroom project!  I'm guessing noone showed up to help you labor.

It was a productive day.  I did not finish but I put a good dent in what remained to be done.

Endre if I lived closer I would be happy to provide a helping hand, and payment in food and drink would have been very acceptable

Seems like there are many of us here on AR getting into the "Labor" part of Labor Day, George Souto ... as I'm preparing my driveway for replacement, as well as some new landscaping.  

Did anyone stop by to chip into the "labor"???

I believe you shall succeed! As for me and my contractors, it continues to be one excuse after another. I wonder if things would be different if contractors had to be licensed and have a Broker? And their license had to be renewed and reviewed by customers they served? In my opinion, nobody does it better than the owner who is determined to succeed. You shall succeed!

Here's a quote that I feel confident you will appreciate:

“He who works with his hands is a laborer.
He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman.
He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist.”
― Saint Francis of Assisi
