The CEO has felt like crap for quite a while now, and laying around my house all weekend wasn’t making me feel any better, so yesterday I tried a new sort of treatment. There is something quite satisfying about hitting a large piece of masonry with a sledgehammer, especially if you are standing in someone else’s living room while doing it. Therapeutic even. The Chief Educator is missing one fireplace and chimney, but he has gained one hell of a rubble pile. And those marks on the floor will buff right out. I’ll bring some wood putty and a sander next time I come over.

So the Chief Educator is now the proud owner of a 5″ x 3″ hole in his roof, and a matching one in his living room ceiling. There’s a tarp over the hole though, so no heat is being lost. Not one single degree. Which is fortunate:

From KATU:

Temperatures in the area could drop into the mid-20s at night and the 30s during the day later this week.

Maybe drape two tarps over the hole.
