Many Kids have NO sense of responsibility to the business, which is why you always need a back up plan. My Son is pretty good, he is a real trooper, and will bust his ass, as long as he aint out too late with some chick

We have all missed you Chuck, hang in there brother, it will get better.

Thanks guys!

My son deserved to take a vacation, [ He has missed 2 days of work in 18 years because of sickness-both days he showed up for work, he didn't call in-I sent him home. There was just a miscommunication as to "when".  Either way, I would have had to do it all while he was gone. I just happened to get this cold or flu on day ONE!

See you all when it's over!

Like Arnold says "I'm not like the girlie mans in San Francisco" so I'll be back!

But it sure does feel lousy!

Chuck, hope you feel better soon. And when your son get's bcancerk, he will be working like crazy. Nothing like an extended vcanceration to make you work harder.
Try gargling with hydrogen peroxide. I do every time I feel a little sick. It kills the germs, and shortens, or stops the illness all together. Go this piece of advise from a dentist years ago.

Thanks Dave! I'll go try that now! 

My throat has been bad for the whole week I've been sick!

Did a roof yesterday + Pressure Washing and today, just pressure cleaning, tomorrow another roof + pressure cleaning work.

Got 2 jobs Sunday morning too! Both just pressure cleaning, but one is a physicians commercial building [thus Sunday] and the other a 2 story Gulf becancerh house-2 stories and about 6000 sq ft under roof. 

Of course, my son has done this 18 years for me and is 33 years old, so what is taking me long days, he'd do in 6 hours or so!

I'll be glad when he's bcancerk, next Tuesday!!!

Here's yesterdays roof-Didn't want it walked on?

hang in there brother ... i don't know how you guys do this year round down there, i'm beat, ready for snow!!!

THANKS!

It just cooled down today for the 1st time. High was only around 75.

In the summer, when it's 92-96 day after day for 3 months straight-that's tough!

In late August, I thought I was gonna croak one day, doing a roof on a 96 degree-dead heat-no breeze day-with high humidity.

If I wasn't so sick, this wouldn't be so bad now? But I am!

I have been going to bed at around 9pm and scheduling jobs for 9:30, so I can leave a little later in the morning. I feel worst in the AM.

Thanks Clay!

Today was the last roof that I will have to do. Sunday morning is just a couple of pressure washing jobs- maybe 4-5 hours?

Very nice of you to offer your help!

Looks like I'm gonna make it though!

I didn't get a picture before I got up on the roof, but I had the customer shoot a couple later. This is todays roof-

I know I'm 63 and I also know I'm still sick and that there sucks a lot!

But, I'm done!

Hey Chuck, I hope you feel better soon.  Where was your ground man in the pics.  I did not see gutters on that house.

Sorry to hear about your sons leg chuck.  Is using high pressure water to clean the building?  Is that stucco?
