The Sacrifice Required for a New Roof

We’re getting a new roof today. The installers have been here since around 8am, which was really enjoyable to wake up to.

I’m about to go out to a nice park or something because the noise is driving me positively batty. My pets have it worse, though; my dog Maggie’s ears have had a very abused/concerned/pissed look to them all day, and when I let her out, she couldn’t ‘do her business’ because she was too suspicious about the activity that was going on above her.

And my cat is in an undisclosed location.
