The Weather and My Life

The personal experiences of my life are recorded in my mind along with the weather. Yeah I'm a nut but so are most of us. That's beside the point so hush up.

I graduated from college in 1979 and the following year it was the hottest ever here:1980. My first son was born in a year with few storms, 1985. The next year hail tore up 75062. The big car wreck was in a year of very little work, so I know it happened in 1998. I had bought the inventory of Flintkote shingles from ABC Supply for a song and dance because the company was changing names to it's new parent, Genstar, and the wrappers would be obsolete.

The year I did nothing but work was 2011 and it is spilling over into 2012 too.

My point is that many of us would never remember what year we lost an ear unless we tied the incident to our jobs or school. I can't remember what year that dog I bit ripped off my ear because I wasn't in school. i didn't start crying until my mother freaked. Then I knew I was in trouble. They put my ear back on.

When I look back on my life I tag incidents to hailstorms, tornadoes, and droughts. Even this year a few things happened.

I'd like to take this moment to thank our customers and apologize to those we couldn't get to. We couldn't even answer the phone it rang so much. there will be very few new roofs to put on after the remaining roofs get replaced, unless the skies get angry again. That is why we also do siding, window replacement, and solar. This helps insulate us from the ravages of calm weather.

My best wishes to everyone. Have a safe and happy New Year. God bless.
