The roof is almost finished and looks beautiful! Although the shingles took up a massive amount of space on the driveway, the workers didn't have quite enough to finish the job. This afternoon, they regretfully told Doyle, who's home for spring break, that they would need to special-order more of them.
But wait! In the garage, waiting patiently since that project was completed in 2001, were the six extra packets of matching shingles! Doyle showed them to the workers and within minutes we heard the irregular pound-pound pounding resume up on the roof.
I don't want to sound like a case study from "Hoarders," but sometimes it's good to hang on to things.

Has anyone ever told you what a good writer you are? You ought to think of doing it for a living. ;)
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed catching up on the house, and on the fact that you were able to combine roofing the house with cleaning out the garage!
Nice combo!
I don't know what I'm going to do when the project is finished - I will miss my near-daily dose of vicarious task-completion as it all comes together.
