They say that things in threes and I am beginning to believe it. The roofer was due to arrive between 9 and 11am this morning. I figured it would be closer to 11am, so Kyle and I went downstairs to try and clean up what I will call the tool room. it was full of crap and was hard to get to any of the rooms down stairs. So off we went, picking up stuff and putting it away. The roofer arrived about 11:30am and climbed on the roof to take a look at things. And of course the worse possible news was we need a new roof. Two things were wrong. The valley between in the front has a metal trough that is way too small and the hard rains we have had cause the water to run under the shingles and then into the bedroom. That is about what we expected. The other part was the last hail storm we had caused a lot of damage to the shingles and needed to be replaced. The only saving grace is that the replacement of the roof might be covered by the insurance. There was no point in fixing the valley if the whole roof needed to be replaced. We are waiting on the estimate from the guy to submit a claim. Then the pool guys show up to check the pool pump. Good news there, it was only a seal that needed to be replaced. So let's see..a new tire for the riding mower, a new roof is needed, and the pool seal was bad. That is three so we can stop with the bad things now. I could tell by noon that I had been on my foot way too long. It was really sore and painful this afternoon, so I did nothing else. I am so looking forward to movie day tomorrow. Today's picture is of Jojo at the beach last year. We are so looking forward to going and hope the weather is nicer this year.
