• JULY 2013 an UPDATE

     RECONSTRUCTION PLAN/ ACTUAL & PREVISIONNEL FINANCES - CONT

     

    FIRST STAGE :  MY HOUSE hard work + SUMMER KITCHEN =  ALL DONE

    Hard work HOUSE : DONE /

    Estimated cost : 17500 TL / Actual cost : 16243 TL

    SUmmer Kitchen  ; DONE

    estimated cost 500 TL / Actual cost : 200 TL 

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SECOND STAGE : 

    + SOLAR ENERGY= DONE

    + FINISHING MY HOUSE = IN PROGRESS

    + FIXING DAMAGES = NOT STARTED

     

     

     we will stay at the first step with only  2 solar panels of 180 W each with ONE GEL BATTERY and accessories (charge  controler and inverter)

    ACTUAL COST : 1350 TL = PAID AND INSTALLED

    It is in fact NOT a priority at the moment to have a bigger solar system for watering only.

    Watering is now provided by 5 simple and long hoses with cover the main gardens. Of course watering requires thus much longer time because it is all done by hand, but like this each tree is looked after individually which is also good

     

     

    --> TO FINISH MY HOUSE is however the PRIORITY  

    because once my house is finished , i can move into it thus liberate the Saraswati tent in which i am living since the fire, thus YOGA PROGRAMs can resume in Saraswati tent.

     TBA company is one company working on the Dam Construction, but not the one responsible for the fire. Its boss, seeing that my house would remain unfinished was wondering why, and sent a friend to ask me. And told me that he would be pleased to HELP ME by giving available material, machines which he has on the construction site.

    Thanks to TBA i could thus receive one truck full of this "white earth" that is used for construction here.

    And the "usta" - builder could already cover the walls with "mud plaster"

    However temperatures being too high now, the work is suspended until some refreshing air comes ...

    So

    What has still to be done =

     

    COVERING OF THE CEILING = Isolation, humidity protection, wood

    COVERING THE FLOOR = Marble (free from Bucak- marble head quarter in Turkey!) on a lime/ sand base

    COVERING BATHROOM = Tiles given by TBA

    INSTALLING ELECTRIC CABLES AND WATER SYSTEM = hopefully material can be obtained from TBA

     

     

    Planned cost : 3500 TL- 2000 TL PAID BY FRIENDS = 1500 TL

    Details =

    Material and transportation : Mud, lime, bulldozer, truck = FREE , given by TBA

    Material to be paid : Isolation material glass wool + Wood for the ceiling = 1000 TL

    Usta's team work : 2000 TL= PAID BY FRIENDS OF ANTALYA :o))))

    Other little material: 500 TL

     

      

    --> FIXING THE DAMAGES  first step : SARASWATI and DURGA 'roofs = NOT STARTED

    AIM : TO COVER BOTH ROOFS BEFORE WINTER because it is sure that they wont resist the next storms in winter

    MATERIAL: sheet metal and wood 

    Why sheet metal ?

    Because it show the best solidity in time, resistance to ALL adversities, fire, heat, rain, storms... and it is not too expensive

    PLANNED COST  4000 TL

    Details:

    DURGA 220 m2  :  material 2000 TL + work 1000 TL

    SARASWATI 50 m2 : material 500 TL + work 500 TL

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    THIRD STAGE   : FIXING THE LOTUS POND + BUILDING THE COMMON HOUSE

    I was speaking of this stage in the previous article, but for the time being better to leave this in stand by and see what will be possible for this year.

    Hopefully TBA will help for some hard work with Bull dozer to clean the devastated places ...

    Lets see ..

    Your good wishes and energies are more than WELCOME to help to continue !!
