Pre-Demo Anticipation

I'm surprised at how much anticipation I am filled with this morning.  We don't know what we will find on our new site!  We have a lot to be thankful for, and few concerns.  One of them would be if the well has dried up or not.  The dumpster arrived yesterday, and apparently it hasn't been placed very close to the porch, so that might be a small drag.  The power is to be turned on today also.  Gabe, a.k.a. general contractor, wants to start demo on the kitchen this afternoon.  I am filled with mixed emotions about what we will find in the grotto that is the DR and kitchen.  Honestly, it gives me the heebie jeebies; I have yet to actually walk all the way into the kitchen.  The DR windows are boarded up, so we will start by un-boarding and putting up plastic.  Here's hoping there won't be any pet residents (a.k.a. SNAKE) since discovering skin coming out of one of the cabinets.  This venture has been a dream of ours, but when it comes to the brass tacks of actually doing the demo, I'm downright creeped out!  So, with that in mind, the very first thing we plan to do on site is to pray over our new property.  We have no idea who or what has been there before, so we need our good God to bless it.  As Nehemiah prayed while rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem in Nehemiah 4:20, "Our God will fight for us!"

Today's challenges can yield a victory tomorrow.
