other professions (architecture, carpentry, plastic surgeons) get to actually SEE the results of their hard work. that's very rewarding as i found out this weekend.
one of my vacation projects was rebuilding a gate that my parents' poodle, sophie, chewed through on the 4th of july. pops and i did it in a couple of mornings, and it turned out great! i haven't built anything out of wood in about 10 years, so i feel pretty excited about it (hence this tangentially-related-to-teaching post)!
there's something about producing a tangible product that gives one a certain sense of accomplishment. i can't stop looking at it! thanks for the help, pops!

It was a pleasure to have worked with you on the gate. Wata team!!
so you'll team up with me for the jacuzzi installation project next?
;>
Gate looks great, but the jacuzzi would be a doozie!!
(C'mon, you're giggling on the inside.)
I'm in. Just let me know when you have purchased the jacuzzi and have taken delivery of it.
