roofing, etc



here's what my brother, father and I were up to today. apparently, the rest of the roof was re-shingled before I bought the house, but this little back portion was not... makes me think that the people who owned the house before me got ripped off by their roofers (bcs they were too nice to do this on purpose). anyway, it was past time to re-shingle it, and the recent rains put an exclamation point on that statement. so we did it. done.

and I might be a little sunburned. in weird places, like my eyelids from the sun reflecting up off the roof, and the strip on my lower back where my shirt was riding up. thank g-d for my aloe plants.
also, Dad took my fussy bike home. I love her, but we're in a fight right now. *sigh* so much good riding time; I miss her already.

kitchen update

my parents surprised me by showing up at 9am this morning (after I had a late, somewhat wild night), so it ended up being a Team Kruemmling work day. Mom painted, Dad was kind enough to tame the plant life trying to take over my yard, and I built the side panel for my oven. some wood filler and a tiny bit more sanding, and this will be ready to paint. I'm pleased to see that I don't totally suck as a carpenter. and yes, where that hole is, I'm going to build a small door; the electrical outlet for the island is in there, and it'll be a good place to store trays, etc.

See those 3 inches of copper? Below the basement floor there's 7'7" and that's the 5lb sledge i used to pound it in after i drilled through the floor w/ a hammerdrill. This is a fun job. :)

The blackness of the base of my thumb isn't dirt, it's a bruise from soccer.
