Shingles for the new roof arrive

Installation of our new roof is scheduled to start on Monday morning. Today, a truck showed up with a conveyor to arrange the shingles at different locations on the roof. It is still a very labor intensive process that included two very lean, fit young guys to muscle the shingles onto the conveyor then move them to where they need to go after they get there. We are changing the color from a white to “Pewter Gray.” If all goes well, we hope to get the exterior painted this summer, too. After that, we only have one semi-major improvement and we have told ourselves we are done.

Attention deficit

Lorena and I were looking through some old pictures yesterday and found a Norman Rockwellesque classic. We had several nostalgic moments going through those pictures. Mostly, we are grateful for the amazing, Godly support we received from both sets of grandparents during the kids growing up years. Kelly posted this photo on Instagram and added the caption, “When you don’t get the attention you know you deserve.” Exactly right.
