Or our part at least. We may still throw the man doors in tomorrow, but the rest of the project is for the experts. I am very, very proud of our efforts. From the ground up, Jon and I built this in 15 days, without the use of any special equipment.
You can see the shingles are already piled on the roof so that's a good sign that the roofers are coming on Monday. The garage door's will go in on wed/thurs, and the siding guy should be starting at about the same time.
I can't tell you enough how important doing this has been for me. I still suffer some trauma from the day of the fire, and doing this work to replace the building has been cathartic.
Life is good!

So, so good that you've been able to rebuild what was lost in that traumatic experience for you. And to be able to do it with Jon too! I hope that this ultimately puts that trauma behind you and gives you some peace! Beautiful new garage so far, and also beautiful windows!!

I truly believe that doing this with Jon and Izaiah Izaiah is part of the healing. Of course, I know that Roo and Lish made it all happen. I'm so grateful that you have all of them in your life! Love

So totally amazing!! And now, as Michael says, it's time to put the trauma away. It will take time, but just think, you'll be taking the next step from the roof!
