Oct 31st - The Metal is on the Roof

Today the four of us put all the full sheets on the roof. (We still have two partial width sheets to cut and install) Kathy continued painting exterior doors and frames.

The mornings work.

And the afternoons work.

This old guy was POOPED! About half way through the afternoon side I was about convinced that I could not help lift my half of another sheet up on the roof. That went on for about three sheets and then the Lord must have given me a shot of adrenaline because I was able to keep working until we finished, almost exactly at quitting time. Had I taken a break, forcing the other guys to take a break also, we would not have finished. God is good, I should have been asking Him for strength but even though I didn't He still gave it to me.

Last nights low was 27 degrees, even though Weatherbug claims it was around 40. Water hoses don't freeze at 40 and ours was definitely frozen again this morning. I had expected it to be and had shut off the water at the hose bib, but the water that was still in the hose was frozen.

The day was sunny. My face is proof of that. Tomorrow I will have to remember to swab on the sunscreen before going out.

God is good. May God bless you and yours this evening, or whenever you might read this.
