The soil in my area of practice tends to be expansive because it contains a healthy dose of clay, which expands and contracts as moisture enters the equation. Remove water due to hot and dry conditions, and the soil contracts. Add water, through rain and irrigation, and the soil expands. That’s called “doing your job.”

But I have been so busy lately, and between traveling for work ( projects out of state ) and giving lectures, I haven’t been able to swing by one particular job site as much as I would like.

The same goes for tracking time, managing expenses, collaborating with contractors and viewing financial reports. I did exactly that.
