Another gutter installation goes wrong.

.

Out of nowhere my husband decided this section of gutter need to be replaced. And as usual, it didn’t go well.

.

.

When my other half works? OSHA cringes…

.

.

And my flowers die.

.

.

All was well until they got to the downspout.

.

.

.

It was crooked.

And leaking.

And kept coming apart.

.

.

When they reached for the screws and caulk?

I had to go inside before my eyes rolled up so far in my head they wouldn’t come back down.

.

.

OSHA who…?

.

My husband finally fixed two of the three leaking gutters he put up a while back. Although gerry rigged would be a more apt description.

The repairs involved rolled metal sheeting and so much cursing I disappeared into the house for most of it. But when I went to check the progress on the barn a few hours later….

.

.

I marveled at the non OSHA approved stabilizing device he had employed.

.

.

Extension ladder in fear of falling over?

Tie it to a post.

🥴

When that repair was complete, he moved onto the section of leaking gutter on the garage and gathered his tools.

.

.

When I followed him over and saw a section of tree limb was involved? I did what any self respecting spouse would do… and went back in the house.
