Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...did you have the weather to get outside and look at your dirt? Think about your planting plans?

I had my roofer come by to look at the 10’ icicles and the ice and snow buildup below the skylights. I know we help create the problem, but he knows we’re not giving them up so he needs to work around them. He went on the roof with BIG spikies on his boots. He shoveled off a bunch of snow, and used a GIANT ice pick to chip back the ice. When he came down he said they need to shovel off the whole roof, that it was a lot deeper than he thought....like as deep as his legs. So, later this week he will be back with his crew. He put ice melt on the worst ice edge and I’ve been hearing the crackling ever since. Sure glad I recognized the sound. LOL!

I’m glad to get it done now as we have had the ice dams back up under the shingles and into the house before. Proactive is key for me. Then in spring we will think about proactive before winter gets here again.

I did not get outside today. I had a number of tasks to take care of inside today. Another warm day here - but rain in the afternoon.

I still have laryngitis - will almost certainly not sing tomorrow morning.

"TAKE UP THY CROSS
AND FOLLOW ME"



"I Vow To Thee My Country"
Choir Of King's College, Cambridge
(Click)

"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.

And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."

Sounds like you could use a little “Globull Warming”!

I really hope the roof problem gets resolved. I am so glad it got warm here and melted all the snow and ice on my FLAT roof. (eek)
