Snow Day

This winter we have had a record snow day count for Harding, and I have enjoyed every minute of them! However, one day we got so much snow that it accumulated on our satelite dish and we lost signal. Eddie, my husband, my hero, saved the day. He determined that the solution was to get on top of the roof and dust of the dish. Seeing that we didn't have a ladder, he had to be resourceful when getting on top of the house. Did I mention that this was at 7:00 at night? Yeah, it was dark... So he gets out this folding table from the garage and our step stool. He puts the table in front of the front door and places the step stool on top. After he was on the top step of the stool, he jumped and shimmied his way on to the roof (via the new gutters). Once he was on top of the roof he had to get on the other side of the pitch to where the dish was. This was done successfully. Of course, I had to leave him sitting on the roof to run inside and see if the tv was working. It wasn't, but we decided there was nothing left to do. So he had to get to the other side again and hang from the gutters down to the step stool, then to the table and back to the ground, all done without breaking anything!! However, when we came back in the tv was working just in time to watch Greek! My HERO!
