Good morning!
We might have some flurries today, but I think 46 mph / 74 kph wind gusts will keep us from noticing 😳

A more up to date set of pics from the shop roof going up. One more weekend should see this first section under roof just in time for winter.

3 hours after snapping this it doesn't really look any different out there. Cloud deck should be breaking up a tiny bit though, but rain for sure tomorrow.

Spent the weekend setting up my office, and editing. Of course with editing comes writing so new stuff soon!
Much more comfortable, no pain in my back and joints!

It is chilly, wet, & sleepy outside this morning, so I am sitting at my desk getting work orders ready for my crew with a space heater under said desk 😁

Welcome to domestic violence awareness month. As the short video explains not all violence is physical, & sometimes it comes as silence or masked as indifference--trust me I've experianced physical & mental both & the mental to me was worse.

Got my current set of rafters set yesterday. For a solo job it went pretty well by the 4th one I worked out the easy way to get there. Build overhangs on the ends this coming weekend & maybe deck it the next couple if weather permits 😊

I spent Labor Day weekend laboring on the shop. What will become a wall seperating garden equipment from the shop proper had to be sheathed to stabilze it.
With the wall thus stable I moved on to building the knee wall that will hold the rafters and thus the roof

Knee wall is almost done.
I'll have to have the rafters delivered though as I can't bring 14 ft 2x6s home...12s were really pushing it 😳

More wall going up in the shop this morning. As you can see I had to get inventive in ways to help hold the sheets up--solo construction is not for the faint of heart.
