No, that isn’t me, and it isn’t our house. It is a somewhat blurry representation of what I was up to yesterday afternoon.
Most of the leaves that were going to fall have fallen, and they were piled up on the roof – as much as a foot deep in some places – so I decided that yesterday was the day to clean them off.
After only one nearly disastrous episode with an extension ladder a dozen years ago, Honey never thinks it’s the right time for me to get over a couple feet off the ground - That’s why we no longer put Christmas lights on the roof – so she watched nervously from the back yard the whole time I was up there.
The job went off without a hitch. The roof looks a lot better, and there’s nothing to dam up if it ever does rain. All-in-all, the operation was a success, but my legs are so sore this morning that I can hardly move.
