I am sore

Luke and Chantée are interested in how their house is coming along so here is a view of the latest progression. 

Sometimes my brother trusts me more than I trust myself when we work on the house together. I don't really want to stand on the three high scaffolding and give him a foothold while lays on the roof to do some sawing. He never doubted though, and it was fine.

The first day he was doing some calculations with the triangle thing and marking where to cut a board. He stopped halfway through and went over the process so I would "know how to do it". I listened but didn't really pay attention because he is the builder man. I only have to heave boards around and pass the hammer, right? Later he called down from the roof for me to cut a board. "Use the triange" he called. Oh. Right. That thingy he showed me. Turns out its not so complicated, actually less complicated than figuring out how to heave a heavy board in the wind.
