1+1=too much

Roofer’s estimate arrived.  It’d take every penny we have, from insurance settlement, bonus, and tax refund combined to pay for it, leaving us without a penny to do ANYthing about fixing all the interior damage.

Roofer did call to follow up, and when I said the estimate was too much for us to manage, hinted he might be able to come down a bit off his estimate.  (I think he’s like everyone else in construction:  hungry, and needs the work.)  We need to talk more—for preference, him, me, and L at one table.

And M’s been having an asthma attack since Tuesday evening.  I got her a work-in appointment with the allergist today, and he recommended restarting her on a daily dose of Flovent and Claritin, regular albuterol nebulizer treatments until she settles down, and a just-in-case script for liquid prednisone if she gets any worse over the weekend.

I'm an elderly tech analyst, living in Texas but not of it, a cantankerous and venerable curmudgeon. I'm yer SOB grandpa who has NO time for snot-nosed, bad-mannered twerps.
