Mine was pretty good. Excellent weatheer and I was really busy in the

contests in here.


Life is goooood!

Got a sliver sawing wood to finish a workbench, but kept all fingers.
Ruined a pair of pants painting garage walls and workbench.
So it was all good.

Actually, it sucked. I was sick all day from the new treatment
protocol.

Thanks for asking though. :)

I had the roofers in to strip & re-shingle my roof.
They are finishing up today.

I had the roofers in to strip & re-shingle my roof.
They are finishing up today.

Had mine done about 6 years ago with 40-year shingles.
Hip roof, standard bungalow, about 40'X30'.
Tear-off, and they put about 4' of membrane on the edges.
New power vent. $4k.
Saw the guy and his crew doing a house in the neighborhood when I was
coming home from work and nabbed him.
No complaints. But I found out later a work mate who lives by me had
trouble getting the same guy back to fix something done wrong on his
split-level.
BTW, I worked at a major insurance company and was surprised to find
that 3 guys I worked with had got free reroofing from that company by
calling out an adjuster after hailstorms.
Gravel in the gutter? Hail damage, reroof.
Unbelievable. But true.
Not saying that if I carried that homeowners I wouldn't give it a shot
myself. $4k is $4k. And theirs roofs were bigger than mine.
One was going to redo his roof and already had estimates of $10k when
he received a godsend. Hail. He wasn't even thinking of the roof,
but had a couple dings in the siding so he called out the adjuster.
Adjuster went over the house. Gravel in the gutter, free roof.
Don't know what influence being a company employee had on this, but
it sure didn't strike me as wise business practice.
I probably pull at least a pound of shingle gravel out of my gutters
every year when I clear leaves.

I can't touch a paint can without getting paint on me, and a lot of
other things!

Same here.

I"ll tell you one thing - I did our roof ten years ago - 45 square on
a gambrel roof.

I will NEVER do that again.

I hate these "experimental" treatments even though I volunteer for
them. :)

As my internist says (she has quite a sense of humor), my situation is
so unique that it practically begs to be used as a test bed. :)

It's not a bad gig either - they pay my travel time, give me a stipend
for the day, allow me to pretty much have the run of the place
(because I'm interested in technology and medicine anyway), they know
that I'm not a complainer so when something ain't right, it ain't
right.

The down side of course is that these things can get ugly occasionally
- I have spent some hospital time due to a reaction, but overall, it's
been worth it. I'm not in a wheel chair, still mobile, still have a
sense of humor about the whole thing and I appreciate that the
researchers enjoy some of my antics from time-to-time.

Altough I must admit, the time I lit up a Cuban while in the infusion
chair (heck - I was going to be there for 10 hours - you know what I
mean?) didn't go over too well, but they eventually got over it. :)
