Got the awning up…

Well…I was going to wait to put the last awning back up til tomorrow but, you know me, I can’t stand to have work hanging over me when I can do it now…the paint was dry enough so I hoisted it up and struggled to get it back in place…trying to hold the 40 pound awning up with one hand while starting a screw with the other is quite a challenge and the screw that I was planning on hanging it on while I did that pulled out and let the damn thing bang me on the head…took a nice little divot out of my scalp since I forgot to wear my hat while I was working….but, I got it up…finally and it now has 5 screws holding it when it only had three before….just have a little repair work to do on the paint since I scraped it a little putting it up but that’s easy enough…and that finishes the paint on the outside of the house that I am going to do…7 hours on one damn awning is a lot of time…and I can’t even celebrate with a cocktail tonight since I’m taking the week off…damn…oh, well….
