Sunny Saturday

The sun was out most of the day today so Annabelle and I spent some time in the backyard playing
in the sandbox and enjoying the sun.

Justin took the dryer apart this evening, it decided to stop tumbling one day last week and then miraculously started tumbling again. It's been making an odd noise for a few months so he wanted to see if he could find the source of the problem. After taking the entire thing apart he found nothing, put it back together and it's still noisy, I think it's just rough on it being out in our garage! After he took the dryer apart he took his laptop apart to take some memory out so that he could install some software, it was an eventful evening of taking things apart for Justin!

The roofer stopped by to give an estimate on fixing the ONE shingle and replacing the turbine, he said he felt bad for even CHARGING for such silly repairs. He showed Justin how to replace the turbine ourselves and he said he could fix the one shingle - but it would not match - and he might have to make an entire patch if he took one shingle off. He has a base repair cost of $250. We're hoping the buyer will pass on getting the shingle repaired and let us just replace the turbine, it would be ridiculous to replace one shingle and risk the roof leaking in the future. We hope to have all this repair nonsense wrapped up by Wednesday. We would like to be as close to 100% settled on everything before our trip to McAllen/Edinburg.
