Yesterday Deb and John went out to the lake house alone to work on the roof. I had imagined that she would just try and start a ridge cap over the newly repaired section and then return home.
What she really did is incredible considering she was alone except for a nine year old boy and has a painful stress fracture of her left foot.
She not only completed the ridge cap, but continued adding the cap to the other portion of the roof. She completed a roofing repair on the area above the front porch where about 15 feet of shingles had blown away. After all that she worked on a wood pile cutting it down to burn barrel size, cleaned the interior of the house and engaged in hand to hand combat with a voracious raccoon which had shredded our trash.
She then texted me saying she couldn't see in the dark so she was unable to mix the concrete to pour into the I beam support hole!
Then she went home and cooked dinner for all of the great unwashed....
Did I marry well or what?
