If it's not broke ...

... don't fix it. Applies to many things in life, but not the roof of our house. Today, we're getting ours re-shingled even if it's not leaking. The shingles have grown old, especially on the south side of the roof.

So, I'm house-bound today, along with two frightened mutts. Holly's not too concerned but Mollie is scared stiff.  I think she's hiding in one of the closets right now. Same as when they dropped the packages of shingles on the roof the other day.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy said “the time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining”. Well, the sun is shining here, thank goodness. So, the roofers are happy. Me, too.

  1. A new roof-how practical- but how symbolic. Protection, keep the elements at bay, and complete a house. Like your quote because it is true about many parts of our lives. To take care of things before they become a crisis. Hopefully you can escape the house today to freedom!
