Ready or not....

...hurricane season is here. And we're going to be ready this year!

Dad finally hooked us up with his handy-dandy pulley system for the window coverings. One of my biggest fears regarding hurricane season has been that there would be a storm coming, we needed to board up the windows, & Paul is either on-call or at some away rotation, & not able to help me secure the house. When Ike blew in 2 years ago, we paid someone a ton of money to have the windows boarded up. Never again! Now, with this sweet little pulley system, I feel (fairly) confident that I can get the windows secured even if Paul isn't around to help.

Dad is the handiest of handy-men.


This is where I was re-acquainted with my fear of heights.

Happy to have successfully passed the pulley-system test,
and even happier to get the hell off that ladder.

  1. Isn't it nice to have a handy dad to help you do stuff to your house!?! I think Robert fakes not being able to do stuff sometimes, but either way my dad is more handy than him! It's nice having him only about 10 minutes away too!
