Next couple of months are going to be big due to renovations on the house. That's always going to be a stressful time but things go bad and need to be replaced. That knowledge doesn't make things less stressful.

But it has to be here and done before the winter because otherwise it will have to wait until next Spring. A roof has been bidded on, and it's good to go for October. It's not really bad now but it's starting to show it's signs of deterioration. Better to nip it in the bud and fix it before it becomes a real problem.

Yeah, home improvement can be stressful but it is important no matter how much of a juggling act it is. Besides, the results are well worth any stress in the longterm.
