Finally my 100+ year old house has got a new roof. They had to take off 4 layers of old roof and replace a lot of wood but it’s done and I feel good about that, not having to wonder during every rain if the roof was going to hold. As everyone who’s ever done it knows, getting a new roof creates quite the mess but it’s ok now. Next comes a big tree trimming project, then the power wash and a touch-up on the painting.
I’ve had walks and lunches and visitors and a doctor’s appointment and waiting every morning, Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday for the roof inspector. My roofers have been unfortunately lax in letting me know when either they or the inspector cancel so I wait… Now I have to wait again tomorrow, Thursday, too. But I’m feeling pretty good, so YAY for that, although still I hope for more stamina, but pretty good is Good.
