If a nail pops on your roof . . .

you'll get a small leak.

If you find the leak, you'll call the roofing guy to fix it.

While the roofing guy is there, you decide you might as well fix the gutters that are useless.

When the gutter guy arrives, you discover that the gutters where hung improperly and there is wood rot.

So while the gutter guy is fixing the eaves, you decided he might as well replace the back porch posts to shore up the sag in the porch roof.

When the gutter guy adds the new posts, it will cause more cracks in the porch ceiling, making it look even worse.

When your porch roof is looking bad, you'll hire Manuel to come tear down the dry wall ceiling and replace it with plywood.

Once Manuel gets the ceiling down, you and your husband will look up and see what a nice vaulting ceiling the porch could have.

Next thing you know, you're buying all kinds of bead board and rough cedar and you're getting a whole new porch.

Merry Christmas to us!
