helen99: A windswept tree against a starlit sky (Default)
[personal profile] helen99
Last night it monsooned like I haven't seen in a while, maybe ever. The first step of the front stairs was completely covered in water. [livejournal.com profile] rialian was upstairs in his room when noticed some dripping sounds. When he turned on the light, he saw a giant bubble in the wall above his head. Luckily it hadn't burst. He placed a bucket under it and punctured it slightly. Apparently the people who had the house before me had painted over some wallpaper (or the water would have just penetrated the wall and landed on his head). So... Anyway, today he's calling the roofing people and I'm signing the contract (someone recommended by a friend). Not the guy I had for the bathroom. (I like him but ... no.)

So soon after the zombie bathroom, it was the attack of the zombie roof. I was hoping for a couple of more years to save up, but twas not to be. Now is the time, and the time is now. Good bye nice, peaceful, tidy yard. Hello huge, bum-ugly tarps and broken shingles and weird contractors everywhere. Hopefully this is really quick and easy and the contractors are ok.

The magical mantram of the day is, "In, Out, Nobody Gets Hurt."
