Sounds great to me, JC. You are very lucky to have found your passion.
Never thought retirement would be like this

Yes I think jacking the roof up a little should work.
Just checked the football schedule. Been trying to avoid looking at it until you brought it up. This is a 6 home game season.
Sometimes it's 7. And the Ga Tech game is in Atlanta. The only thing that matters to me is "What time does the game start?" Do I dare leave the house, or do I hunker down for the day? Appalachian State at 6:15 pm. That's perfect. Leave town around 3 pm and plan to get back after 6:30.

Sounds like your are making a tough decision. Why don't you follow your gut.?
Not tough. I just thought it was a very unusual thing to happen, so I posted about it, just for fun. I keep thinking I've seen everything.
Raising the roof a little is the way to go. The only way this could have happened is if the roof heaved up under a strong wind, so it can take a little stress. I can tell when enough is enough. The worst that could happen is some of the nails in the metal roofing get loosened and it leaks. I can fix that. This *is* my gut feeling, after thinking about it.
Can't fix an aluminum door that has been sprung. I was VERY lucky the door didn't get bent.
Or were you talking about the football game timing? LOL!

I wasn't even sure you were talking to me. Right now I think I should just run away.
I am having a tough time today. I can barely think. Been slow all day. In addition I have an enormous time trying to figure out who is attempting to message me.
I'm sorry, Uncontrolable. It was my fault.
I just assume everyone knows I'm addressing whoever I quote, when I quote someone. Otherwise the previous poster. You quoted maggiemae, but she wasn't making a decision, so I assumed you were talking to me. I'll be more careful from now on, and include everyone's username, even if I quote them.
Hope you are feeling better by tomorrow.

Hi Nancy, just woke up. feeling better. Can't believe I said I was having an "enormous time"...I wrote that and have to ask. What the hell was he talking about? I feel like Nicolas Cage in "Jurassic Park,...Enormous got to hurry, yes, yes, go, go, must hurry!!...I could be in almost any dinosaur movie. "Do you see that, its ENORMOUS!!?"

Nancy, you don't mention them, or haven't since I rejoined the group, SNAKES! They are much worse this year, I've heard, and you're out and about in nature all the time. I am such a wuss when it comes to anything that crawls.

Done... It needs fixed so it won't happen again.
I am missing the boat. For some reason I cannot find the post that I was supposed to see.
Hi Katybug! Thanks for stopping by.
No, I haven't seen many. A few black snakes, and it may be the same one over and over again. I don't have time to walk around in the woods much. This one was just outside the barn this spring (ignore surgical cotton ball). They are harmless.
I've never seen many out there. Maybe I make too much noise tromping around. I used to see a few water snakes, but the turtles have cleared them out, and I *think* I saw a water moccasin (cotton mouth) once---a big fat dark gray thing curled up near the pond---long ago. They are poisonous.
Maggiemae, yes the jack thing worked. They need to invent something easier to use than that, but it worked. Every time I fix something that *needs* to be done, I see a bunch more things that *should* be done. The door behind the storm door is steel, and it's starting to rust. It needs sanded and painted. {sigh}
Wasn't it nice today? Starting to feel like fall. Low humidity. The lights all came on in the basement. Yay!!!
And I've found a lot of dead cicadas/locusts. Must be the year for them, like you said. Maybe that's what we were hearing earlier.
Uncontrolable: I don't know about a post. Maybe an image didn't show? Try refreshing the page, or hit F5. Sometimes I have to do that to see some images.
Glad you are feeling better today. Would you believe I've never seen Jurassic Park?!!

It was Jeff Goldblum not Nicolas Cage, Jurrassic Park was too good a movie for Nicolas Cage to be in.
I watch too many movies!
