Woo hoo! I've got plenty of work ahead of me but I'm glad the work work will be done. Although they're forecasting 3-6" of rain from Hanna coming our way for tomorrow so I've got to get up on the roof today to find out where I have a pesky leak that only appears when it rains heavily (I'm hoping it's just backing up against the shingles in a flatter spot-I recaulked everything around the chimney so it's not there). The wife just got done painting the room and the repaired ceiling so I don't need to piss her off!

I kept the dumpster for an additional week since this weekend is supposed to be at least a partial rain-out. That gives me some extra time to clean out the storage areas in the house. With it pouring it'll be a good time to sit with a garbage bag and go through the stuff we haven't touched in 10 years.

We've got our kids' Back to School picnic at school tonight so we'll probably go pick up some Subway subs and go catch the band and magic show. That'll kill a couple hours and give them a good outlet for their excess energy since I'm sure cabin fever will set in. Hopefully we can keep the mosquitos from carrying them away.

I'm kinda bummed since S#1 was supposed to have his first two fall league games this weekend .
