Sukkah Day 15

1. What did you do today (describe the process of what you accomplished)? – minimum 3 complete sentences
We put 3 of the walls up and SG and I screwed in supports so that people would not have to hold up the walls all day. We also brought up ES wall to the place the sukkah will be at. We almost finished securing 2 of the walls together.

2. What is one thing you have done so far you were initially scared/worried about, but now feel more confident in after all this practice? – minimum 3 complete sentences

I was initially scared that when we are bringing the walls it will fall on someone, but now I have more faith that we have the strength that no one will get crushed. I was scared to let other people do a lot of work because I wasn’t sure that they were going to do a good job. But now I know that I can let some other people take the wheel because I have seen that I am not necessarily the best at everything.

3. Give a step by step account of what you have done so far to get our Sukkah up to where it is today.
