Home Invasion

7:30 AM
I step out of the shower to hear pounding on the roof and pounding on the front door. Really loud, insistent pounding. I grab a towel to dry off as quickly as possible, but luckily the spouse has already thrown on his jeans and is heading towards the door. Roofers. They're here.

Don't get me wrong - we need the roofers - our roof has been open for about 2 weeks and while there's no rain in sight, weather patterns can change quickly around here. I spoke to the roofer yesterday morning and he said he may be by this morning, but I figured he'd call to confirm. Or at the very least, call on the way over. In fact, I'm pretty sure nearly every contractor we have had to the house has called before they arrive. Apparently this is not the way of the roofer.

Meanwhile, pounding and banging and scraping and it really sounds like they are trying to destroy the house. All this for a skylight? And a couple vents removed? Joy.
