Subject: Re: 10.VI.21 by teebee on 2021/6/10 13:22:13 Morning guys... no big rush to get around today, as I finished my part of the lawn shed, which is almost everything. Not doing the painting ( doors and door trim), everything else I purchased was prefinished or PVC, (the trim). It was HOT the last two days here, heat indices in the low 100s. Did what I could on the ground and in as much shade as possible. But finally had to climb onto the roof to shingle it. Did part of the roof Tuesday night. Was SO dead tired that night, I ate a little supper (very little appetite) took a shower and was in bed before 9pm. Yesterday, I couldn’t put it off any longer, and went up on the roof at 2:30. Rosie would bring 3 shingles at a time to hand me ( she had no business doing it at all, but it saved me from having to climb up and down the ladder a hundred times). SIL can’t/won’t climb a ladder, he just freezes on the second wrung.....pisses me off, but he still wouldn’t help with that part. About the sixth row up on the east side, the nail gun jammed, so back down to the ground (in the shade) to try and fix it. Back up to the roof and plug it in and I still got nothing, got pissed and threw the damn thing off the roof. Luckily, #3 was on her way home from work and stopped by and picked another one up. When she got home, she crawled up on the roof with me and helped me finish off shingling.....SIL did bring shingles over then and hand them up to us. Today the plan is to gather my tools up, pack them up in the pickup and get a massage. Last night, we went to bed about 10:30, at around 11:30 I had a cramps in my legs so bad I couldn’t move, it hurt so bad and continued for 15 minutes, until Rosie went down stairs and brought up some dill pickle juice for me to drink .... almost immediate relief. I’m hoping a good deep massage will help. Nice floor mats Matt. Sorry about not being around much, but I’m beginning to better understand what Tommy deals with day in and day out working in the heat and humidity. |
