Hammering Away At It

Some months back, the buildings in our area were damaged by the remnants of a hurricane. Last week, the work began to repair the damage as our turn came up. Since then, it's snowed three times--more than it did the previous three months put together--and we had that deep freeze that had the polar bears looking for electric blankets.

Yet, during all but the very coldest of the cold snap--when it was literally too dangerous to be up on any roof--these guys have been out there, every day, weekends included, and making progress on the repairs. I was out just long enough to put out the trash and I was frozen. These guys are earning every penny of their paycheck.

It's something to keep in mind the next time I think I'm working too hard.
