The roof is a go

I signed the contract yesterday, wrote a check for $6,342.57 (one-third down, another third due at 50% completion, the final third due on acceptance), and the crew is supposed to start arriving with building materials on Monday.  Actually, two of the crew arrived before nine o’clock this morning, knocking on the front door to let us know they were going to get onto the roof and look around to see what they’re up against.

SaphireBear phoned on her way home from BigFun and volunteered an hour’s help moving things out of the sewing room, which L seemed pleased to get; there are a bunch of things in both rooms that need more than one person to move—that damned great hemstitcher table, for one, which is enormous and with the motor weighs forty pounds if it’s an ounce—and which is mine to deal with, since Mackey was my great-grandmother.  Blissfish, what time(s) might be convenient for you or Valatan later this week?

Thiseenin’ I’ve got to get out the table saw and see if I can chop up some more of The Shedding Tree’s branch, to have it out of the way for tomorrow.
