The roofers were on the job first thing this morning. They have to do a tear-off; so they were busy taking all the old shingles off the roof. The shingles could not come until 4 pm; so they cancelled that delivery and rescheduled for noon tomorrow.
My husband will be meeting with another person on Friday that cleans out houses. Hopefully we will like his bid.
My husband will go over to the house later tonight to see how the sump pump is doing. The ground was so saturated from the foot of water pumped out that it kept coming back into the basement and turning the pump on. Hopefully by now it will have slowed down (and still be running OK).
That's all for now!

I envy you for having the budget for repairs. Ours will be by next year, maybe.

I feel like you should do this like an old film Noir. The travails of a roof!

Since they aren't doing the roof on the extension, it's not quite as bad as we thought.

@LindaOHio
Thanks for updating us on how things are going as far as the house is concerned. Are you moving close by?

This is the house we used to live in. We live about 6 miles from the old house.
