A VERY RUDE AWAKENING!




So I was in my bed.
Sleeping.
It was 7:45am, so I guess technically I should have been up, but I am having an exhausting month and have been sleeping in until around 8:00am.
So anyway here I am dozing away and am suddenly awoken by this loud and annoying scraping-scratching sound. I was sure it was our puppers Noah, but I couldn't figure out what in the heck he was doing that could make such and irritating noise.
And so stinkin' loud too.
It takes a few moments to register that it is coming from outside.
I stand up (I was wearing just my underwear) and pull back my curtains (nice and wide of course....couldn't have just peeked out).
And there....just 5 or 6 feet away from me is a whole work crew of men scraping shingles off of my neighbors roof.
Of course I closed the curtains as quickly as I could....don't know if any of them saw me or not.
Not my favorite way to start my day. (But I'm sure that there are others that wouldn't mind!)

Hahahahah! It would have been much better if Hugh Jackman or Gilles Marini were on the roof crew, then you could sell tickets to the window show!

That is too funny. Way early to start a big job. But good to get the work done before the heat of the day. :)
