Our Idaho Family
Jul. 27, 2008 - From fences to the roof

Well, I haven't been here much, because I've been on my roof. Yes, you heard that right, my ROOF! Now, I wasn't going to blog about this, because me getting on the roof wasn't a pleasant interaction between my husband and I. He was frustrated and I was frustrated. I'm pretty sure he never got why I was frustrated. But, I did understand him and decided it was in the best interest of our long term relationship if I helped. I had no desire to share this whole incident with anyone, because I really was not happy about it. Never once in my entire life have I had a desire to redo a roof - NEVER! Never once in my life was I asked if I would like to help redo a roof... but I digress.

After reconsidering though, I decided I'd write this entry just to let you all know that I am now fairly confident walking on the roof, and am quite adept at a nail gun. But, I guess what blessed me most is that my husband has been telling his friends that I've been up on the roof with him, using the nail gun. So, I at least feel appreciated.

One friend told me that her husband said to her, "I'm way impressed. You are handy and I wouldn't expect you to get on the roof." This is my friend that decides her kids need a new kid sized table, goes out and buys the supplies, and completely builds one that day.

I am now not too bad and the table saw and nail gun. I'm scared to think of what adventure my husband will send me on next....

Yay! You did blog about it! I have to say, I am SO impressed with you. Also hoping our roof doesn't need redoing any time soon because I don't want my hubby getting any crazy ideas.

Next time he'll have you building a pole shed. (j/k...or not!)

It's great that you are trying new things like that. I would probably have a hard time getting up on a roof too. It sounds like did a good job. :)
