My standard answer to "can I do it?" Is to suggest a trip to the Home Center and pick up a 92 pound sack of Portland Cement. Put it on the cart. Push it around. Put it back on the top of the pile.

That's the hardest part of the project, is lifting the heavy stuff. All the rest is just learning the basic stuff, and being careful. It's useful to have this source of information and support.

And by all means get the neighbors to help. They'll just be offering "helpful" suggestions anyway, you might as well put them to work unloading the truck. You'll have to make them pizza, but that's the fun part.

Good luck with your project. Read everything you can here (I know, it's getting to be a lot).
