So here it is, the end of the week. Not a bad week by any means, busy and hectic but ok all in all.
4:00 I get a call at work...from my neighbor. "Joel, you have a serious tree problem, you should probably get home."
In my front yard I have/had a mature tree, at least 1/2 a meter in diameter. It split in half...we're not talking just a big branch breaking off, but the
entire tree split clear to the soil!!! And, of course, the half that fell was the half that fell onto my house. Yes, ONTO my house!!
Broken window, ruined rain gutters, roof shingles rubbed off all over the place.
I had the insurance man at my house within half an hour and a tree trimming service there, too.
It's now been five hours since I got home. The tree guys did a great job and I have a ghetto-looking tarp nailed on my roof because it's supposed to rain tonight.
What a mess.
The only saving grace, you ask? The only saving grace was that one of the tree guys was a friggin HOTTIE!!
Now I get to look forward to insurance paperwork, estimates on roof repair, scheduling nightmares, etc, etc.
Happy Friday.
