I am woman!

Well- No pictures to go with this one, there should be though! This morning we went over, Chris is still really sick and hasn't worked at the house since last Wed. Anyway, we went to check on this roof tie in and then got in the attic to get out what we could of the ductwork. PICTURE THIS- the pitch of the roof is low so there isn't alot of room in the attic, its short basically. AND the roof used to be a shake roof with thousands of long nails still sticking down through the roof and of course I was reminded that I could ONLY STEP on the rafters, NO GOING THROUGH THE CEILING- dah! So after crawling literally on the boards, half way impaling myself in the head and back and trying to tug and slice my way( with knit gloves on and an exacto knife) through the ductwork and THEN flinging it over to the opening to Chris we did it! Of course, we were itchy, coughing, sneezing and all that- Yes we had masks on. I was thinking while up there, how many men or women would be doing this crazy work? All so we have a 1/2 new and 1/2 old home??
Progress was made on the roof line, I'll take pics tomorrow, maybe if we could get all 4 guys there on one day they could get it done by the end of week?? Wishful thinking but we'll hope taxes are done, Chris is feeling better and family emergencies are all done.
