Dear Roof

I climbed onto a roof today to help tear off the old shingles and whatnot. I helped carry the whatnot over the roof and dumped it into a dumpster. I was very scared beforehand because I have no for reals building or construction skills and I have never been on a roof before. Standing on the roof at first was initially terrifying, but after about an hour and a half of walking all over it, I was feeling a little more comfortable. I even sat down and chatted with my friend who has actual roofing abilities. I met a new person. I learned some new skills. In addition, I became dehydrated and sweaty way too quickly for my likings.
But.

I was on a roof today. Me. I was scared and tried anyway. I am tired and realized I still have more growing to do.

Still.

Liantonio. Roof.

I am nonplussed.
