Well, it is cloudy, partly, and cool. The wind isn’t really blowing either.
I drank coffee and walked around outside and when the sun came up I decided to get stuff ready to do the roof on the garage. Didn’t take long to get things set up so I put Sparky in the house and I went up on the roof and took out all the screws holding the corrugated plastic down..
I decided to take a picture after I got all the screws out and now after I have all the plastic off…
I put some boards down to support the steel at the peak.
Carrying the steel up the ladder wasn’t easy. I would carry up a few sheets and screw them down then carry up more. The neighbor came over to see what I was doing when I was almost finished and I had to sit down before I fell down. This all took about six hours and I was really hurting from all this work! Here is a finished shot of the roof…
Nothing I had was right for the job. The steel sheets were about four inches to short, still worked, The peaks I bought were to small and the ones I had were big enough but they were for the edges. Guess what??? I made them work because I wasn’t going to try to make it perfect. If I want perfect I will have a new garage built and it won’t be by me!
I am so sore now, I took a couple of Aleve and tried to take a nap but I was just to sore to sleep. I got up and the more I walked around the better I felt so I am going to stay up!!!
Watched our shows tonight and then I needed to go to bed and try to sleep off some of my hurts!! Night Y’all….
