Anyway, we had this shed built to house the wood that we will eventually use in our wood burning stoves. But it doesn’t have any porch roof or any overhangs to keep the snow off the sides of the shed. AND it doesn’t match our cabin or garage so we had the builders leave the siding and roofing off so we could put our own on. When it’s done, I’ll be glad..
So Kevin designed and built overhangs on the sides and back of the shed. He will build the porch roof next year on the front.
Everything would have been just peachy if Kevin hadn’t hurt his right arm (tennis elbow). I naively said I would help him with whatever he needed to do on the shed. Little did I realize that meant actually having to physically work HARD basically all day every day for five days, climb up onto the roof, climb up into the rafters inside, handle drills and drivers, carry 4x8 sheets of plywood along with Kevin, combat sun, wind, torrential downpours, and insects of every description!
I learned a lot about what I can tolerate and what I can’t. Kevin learned that about me too:/
At one point I lost my sh*t and cried “I just want I go home...”
Today, we finished the roof as far as the extensions and the weather proofing. The only thing we need to do before we go back to Boise is wrap the shed with tyvek house wrap.
The actual roofing and siding will be another trip. Hopefully Kevin’s arm will feel a whole lot better by then!!
