The quote from the second roofer, who we have used before, was slightly less; and he will make sure all bathroom exhaust fans are vented to the outside instead of the attic. I have decided to go with him. The other company uses Owens-Corning Shingles; but Certainteed Shingles should be good enough for the time I have left on this Earth.
The funeral home at which I had my husband's funeral is having prices increases on May 1. I will have to find some time some way to get my funeral bought and paid for before that date.
I rescheduled my dentist appointment because I wasn't feeling well.
Breakfast - PB&J sandwich
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - BBQ chicken breast, green beans, mac and cheese, red cabbage, peaches
Dessert/Snack - Blueberry muffin
Dinner - Buffalo chicken/cheddar sandwich and Cheetos
What did you eat yesterday?

I hope you are feeling better now.
I love BBQ chicken. It's just so good.
Thinking back, it honestly doesn't seem that long ago that a person could buy a small home for $25K....and now, that's how much a roof is. And the price of cars now...just wow! If your two cars run well, you will surely be able to sell them quickly.

I'm feeling much better, thank you. I remember in 1978 we paid around $50-55,000 for our house.

Me too. There's rain coming! It will probably be 3 weeks until they can get to it.

@LindaOHio How much do you need for funereal expenses?

@BarBaraPrz $13,000. My husband's insurance policy should cover it, even though the roof, etc., will be coming out of that money. I hope you're not thinking about sending me money. As sweet as the gesture is, I will send it right back to you. Someone else did that one time here. I won't accept any money from my MyLot friends.

@LindaOHio This is exactly what I am thinking buying our new furniture. No way I go for custom made as in the past.

@LadyDuck I'd like a new couch; but I don't see the necessity for just a couple more years.

I hope the contractor can get your roof done fairly soon. Good luck with it!
I'm sorry you weren't feeling well and had to reschedule your dental appointment.

Thanks. It will be about 3 weeks until they can get to the roof. I hope it doesn't rain much.

Good decision on the roof. Not sure what I ate yesterday as I have slept, and also been sick since then.

Roofer number 2 sounds good. 3 small pancakes for breakfast, a slice of pizza for lunch, chicken, peas and blueberry muffin for din.

Glad you found a cheaper option, and a better one.
I had the usual, chicken taco for lunch (all mixed with the rice and stuff on the plate to keep it from landing back on the plate 
), yogurt and strawberries for mid-day snack, and chicken & rice & veggie soup and applesauce for dinner.

Sounds like a good plan with the 2nd roofer. Hope that all goes well.
May 1st is not too long away!
sounds like interesting meals, the PB& J and the cheetos would be good.

My mom's home insurance would not renew her policy due to roofing issues . . . we were told even if we redid the roof it might still not get renewed. Ultimately we got a policy out of state (no CA insurance is issuing out new home policies). A new roof would have easily been around $30,000 . . . it is NUTS.

Insurance companies can be so rigid. Yes, around $30,000 seems to be the going rate.

The other company met the price, they will vent the exhaust fans, they will do the job in 1 day instead of 2; and they are coming next Thursday!!!!!
