da roof...da roof...da roof is, well, crap

What, you ask, is Matt doing on our roof? Yesterday our neighbor pointed out to us that a bunch of our shingles were falling off. Grrrrreat. Just what I wanted to hear. When we bought the house a year ago, one of the selling points was the "New tear-off roof in 1999". It sounded good at the time. Roofs are generally meant to last more than seven years after all. Evidently, not ours. Once Matt got up on our roof and held on for dear life, he discovered that entire rows of shingles just slid out from under him. Yes! Just what I was hoping. I love spending half the day at Menards and the other half throwing stuff up to Matt on the roof. He managed to not break any bones and get the job half done before leaving for softball. I can't wait until tomorrow night.
