My wife and I were trying to figure out how to get a new roof put on my father/mother inlaws house. We figured we could get all the supplies on a project card, but the main issue was labor. We figured that we could do it all by ourselves(basically kill ourselves), and out of the blue three other relatives offered to help, and we got the roof done without incident in only three days.

It amazes me when people offer to help others, without asking for them to do so, or when the people don't even demand compensation. The only negative aspect of doing the roof was, I now know what it feels like to carry 58 bundles of shingles up a ladder.
