Will Xitter even be around at the end of 2024?

@BosmangBeratna
I'll post pics when I do it.
( the voice to text in that last post...whew. )

@BosmangBeratna
Yeah it's the failing brickwork. That's swelling out in about to collapse. That's going to be the real problem for temporaries. I'm putting plywood on both sides and bolting it together and slowly keep turning the bolts the charge back in place again 🙂 hahaha

@InvaderGzim
Oh I see. Yeah I replaced all the joists that were affected. Half of the roof remains the same and it's open underneath so everything can dry easily. I may replace the far edge joist which is rotted at the end or just remove the rottedpart and sister.

Good morning 👋 and happy #coffee time ☕
Well, I thought we'd skirt this storm 🌨️ last night. Maybe an inch expected. Apparently in the early a.m. it dumped several inches to a foot around town. Looks like I have four to six inches around the house, with more on the way this morning.🧤🧣🥶

@InvaderGzim
Felt and roll roofing. Simple. Building is old, fragile walls, 2 ft. over the prop line into the alley. It may have to come down in the future, esp if I build another with mother in law qtrs overhead someday.

Bleach?

@MHS_Jenkins
👍Well thanks. I got this. Was in Fiona last year, so understand hurricane season.

@BosmangBeratna
Not brave.
Has to be done.
So do it.
The failing structural brickwork is worse.
120 year old slaked lime mortar is really just sand at this point.

Tarpaper laid yesterday, roll roofing and sealing the joints and edges with Henry's today. Cool yesterday and today and wet/snow coming this afternoon. I should get it done just under the wire.

Going to put the kettle on now for #coffee.
Still dark out and 26°F at 6:30.

Throw the soap dish out. Put a draining thing in there. Avoid the fact that moisture can accumulate under. 14 nor 22 comprehend. And they won't for years. They may marry someone who will just have to deal with this.

@evistre

Hey I was working on the roof today. 3:30 came around. I climbed down the ladder and called it good. You can too.

That was my father's description of our family. It was a dictatorship but a benevolent dictatorship.

It's always good to sleep with your hoses the night before that so they're warm and compliant. 😆

Second breakfast!

Good morning beautiful Nauts! 🌞

Another cuppa #coffee☕ before returning to my reroof project. Sunroof leaked and rotted out the joists, so leaving it off this time. Have to replace one more sheet on the "okay" side this morning, then underlayment paper and roll roofing, finish up with Henry's. Hopefully get it all done before it gets nasty late this afternoon or tomorrow.
