This Old House #1

Work on my aging sunporch has begun! And it's so long over due.

Example #1: The exposed boards indicated Insect damage. Ergo, I am now an additional 4-figure sum lighter in my bank account, but one-year guaranteed against further damage by Carpenter Ants and Termites.

The infestation didn't surprise me. The price tag, did; but I have neglected this problem for nearly a decade, so I also count my blessings and pay my debt to grace.

And, today, the second day of my contractor's repair work was drawn to a close early thanks to a thunder storm that caused a two-hour power outage.

But after so long, patience is just part of the process.
