4/4/25 - Meals

I ate rolled oats with almond milk and a tablespoon of sugar for breakfast, Mexican Lasagna for early lunch and a sausage, egg and cheese croissant for supper. I hope you're doing okay...

It does sound as though a new roof is in order. Perhaps the next quote will be a bit lower. I guess there is a lot of work involved.

I can't believe the cost to replace roofs these days. Astronomical. And I remember when I had to replace my roof back in 2004 after three successive hurricanes hit our area. It was $5000, and I was upset at how much it was then! lol. It was covered by homeowners insurance, but we decided to pay cash instead of file a claim so that our insurance rates wouldn't go up. You are still grieving the loss of your husband, which is natural. Don't stop, and keep praying incessantly for his soul; it does make a difference.

Pouring on the hugs. I do not know the size of your roof or how steep it is. You have me worried cause our price for a new roof is about ten thousand plus another six for the solar guys to take the solar panels on and off- they have to mess with electrical stuff, too. It is incredibly hard to know whether the roofer will do a decent job.

I am sorry you are having a rough time. I know it is a very hard time for you. Go ahead and yell at him, it's a healthy way to get out your frustration and anger..you are way, way stronger than you know. Didn't I read somewhere recently that you said you didn't have a new roof for like 25 years? That's a LONG time for one roof. They may have to replace/repair some of the plywood under the shingles, etc. Getting a new roof is never cheap, but now it's even more than ever. But you have to have a roof, for sure, especially if you are finding leaks. An idea--maybe. Can you do the roof before the driveway? When they do the roof you will have worker's trucks, a big dumpster is always involved to put all the shingle trash in that they strip off, there will be old nails involved, etc. All of that activity will take it's toll on any driveway, but if you wait until the roof is all done, it might work out better.

i'm sorry you were sad. what a big price for the roof. no plans. currently only mylotting and listening to some songs.

I like your image. Yes, I know home repairs are very expensive, and not getting them done costs even more. Glad you are getting more estimates.

Wow, that is alot.However, if it is starting to keak, you probably don't have a chouce.

Wowza, so glad I got my roof done three years ago, it was half that price! I had chicken veggie soup for both meals. Grilled cheese for lunch, O’Brien potatoes for dinner, apples, fiber, yogurt. All at home, because it’s just too darn risky to go out with all this flooding.

I am sorry that you were overcome with such grief, a lifetime of love will do that. I hope that you can get a roofer all lined up for the first nice daay so that you can get this task completed.

Roofs are very expensive now. We went with feazel roof because they give a lifetime warranty. Very worth it It takes time to heal. I am sure you will see him again

What can I report? Got my groceries and heated up three chicken wings by Tyson they come out delicious, a Hostess cupcake, and an ice cream sandwich,

My meals for yesterday included Rotisserie chicken and rice.

Sorry about the price... hopefully the other one gives a better price, either way it is pricey. Sorry you're going through that, I imagine it would not be easy.

I like pasta. I miss it. Breakfast: mandazi with tea Lunch: beef with rice Supper: fried cassava with salad
