Roofers. (Repeats to self) I am lucky to get on the schedule so soon. I am fortunate to have the means to have my roof replaced. I will not kvetch about the strangers in my yard. I will cheerfully allow people in my home to access the attic to take photos. I will soothe angry LGDs who detect intruders above the ceiling. (the escapees from last week have to be inside). Nothing hurts or is on fire (presently). I am a happy camper.
The older I get the more I’m like my dog.

Why the new roof? Bought it that way or new damage? Hurricane Ike that did a direct hit on Galveston and Houston, dropped an enormous oak tree on our house in Livingston, years back. With the help of a guy from work, I did it myself. It took 3 weekends.

Professionals will get it done so fast, it will hardly be an inconvenience. A crew will swarm all over your roof like a hill of fire ants. It will be done, they will be gone, and you will be amazed.

On second cup of coffee. It’s 43F with a high of 49F cloudy, and cold. Wet, humid cold like getting wrapped up in a wet blanket.
Going to sons house to meet Chris to take down dog pen, made of horse panels. My flatbed is there, we’ll load it up. We’ll take down a couple of cow panels that are left, I can use them here. Load sheep working equipment in back of truck. Pull T-posts. Finish coffee, get dressed, feed, get in truck, make like a tree and leaf.

Maybe I should change my username to Curmudgeonly Shepherd :lol:
Professionals want a lot of money. They wanted $17,000 to roof my old house, 35 squares, tear off and replace with 3-tab.

I found architectural shingles, seconds, at a bargain price, got beautiful new roof, replacing some decking and the whirly air vent things, paid labor, for under $4500. And my husband told me I couldn’t do it…….. Showed him!

Congrats on the roofing score. They are getting a chunk of change for this one. Had a hailstorm a day before move in. Thank goodness windows weren’t broken, that move was sassy enough.
