Roof Progress

Sep 30, 07 Roof Progress

Posted by Michael in Home Remodeling

The roof is progressing well. Glenn started on Tuesday with a friend helping him, who was supposed to be responsible for stripping the old shingles off. That lasted about a day. By Thursday, I was up on the roof instead. I spent most of Friday helping Glenn and then from 8 AM to 7 PM on Saturday and Sunday. I found out that roofing...

Posted by Michael in Special Events

The sleep study on Tuesday night was actually a nice experience. I got to the clinic at 9:30 PM and they had me fill out some paperwork. They showed me to my room, which was small by comfortable.

It occurred to me that I have been playing it alot over the last two weeks, which may explain why I haven’t done much updating of my blog. My good friend Swavek got a copy...

Posted by Michael in Home Remodeling

The next phase of home remodeling has begun. This time, we’re going to replace the roof. Glenn noticed last spring that the shingles on our roof are curling, which means that it’s time to get a new roof. I’m not sure how we’re going to afford it, but it needs to be done. We’re going to replace both...
