finally FINALLY here are some photos of the roof work on saturday.
jim was sawing and sawing the jagged edge of roof. because he was crouched like this for quite a few hours, i think he was pretty stiff and sore when he finished. and of course he finished, because he’s jim.
for a while randy was having a great time up there on the roof.
but then, as i wrote earlier in the week, randy unfortunately SMASHED his thumb with the hammer and now the roof is covered with his blood. ouch.
meanwhile, in the garden, honey and mollie were having a stand off.
the animals love it when people are outside; they love to cavort all around whoever is out there.
that night, though, mollie was just as happy. kevin emptied the bowl of nuts from the coffee table in order to pack the bowl that they were in. he lined up a bunch of walnuts along the edge of the table, and it took almost all day for mollie to pay attention to the fact that they were there.
but when she found out, she went to work. i watched her as she selected a nut, cracked it open, and at the contents. she kept going back to the table to get another nut, and i wished i’d had the energy to find the video camera and tape it, because it was quite entertaining.
here she is, trying to dig out every last nut crumb.
after the nuts were all gone and the shells were littered all over the carpet, she had to keep sniffing the table, hoping that just one more nut would magically appear.
many many more things happened today, moving and other-wise, but i think i need to take a break right now.
these things include both me and kevin making appointments to get MRIs next week. you’d think they’d give us a group family discount.
ok then,
grace
