The roofing people were over yesterday and redid the garage steps so they aren't as steep, installed two new windowsills, replaced the insulation in the basement that the mice messed up, put up my new mailbox and replaced the faucet in the sink in the master bedroom. While replacing the windowsill in my husband's TV room, they discovered that the wood was all rotten underneath. When they went to remove it, the window shifted and cracked throughout the whole pane. Since it wasn't their fault, I will be purchasing a new window for just under $3,000. Sheesh! They put up a piece of plywood; and my new window should be ready in 6-8 weeks.
Spoke with 2nd cousin to find out if she was coming Monday or Tuesday next week. She was quite chatty. I don't understand her.
Have called 4 days and left a message for my dentist to reschedule my appointment...they haven't called back. I think I will look for a new dentist.
My Medical Guardian pendant has to now be charged in less than a day. It used to last 2-3 days. A new pendant is arriving tomorrow via FedEx.
What are you doing for the long weekend? No plans here.
Breakfast - Protein bar
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Hamburger, potato wedges, peas, banana
Dessert/Snack - Chocolate chip muffin
Dinner - Buffalo chicken/cheddar sandwich and tortilla chips
What did you eat yesterday?

Wow! That's a lot of news!
I'm wondering if 2nd cousin found out you'll be leaving the house to her daughter and son-in-law so is being nicer now? SOMETHING changed for her...
I ate a sausage, egg and cheese croissant for breakfast, no lunch and a ham and cheese sandwich around 6 pm for supper. (I was playing online and didn't think about food. *shrug*)

She already knows about the house. I have a suspicion that she was drinking/smoking.

@LindaOHio Oh, I see... Maybe you should make sure she drinks/smokes every time she's supposed to come see/help you/

@LindaOHio I'm sure you've had a few unexpected expenses over the last few months.

Wow, thanks for reminding me why I don’t want to replace my windows. My entire window job in 1990 cost $3,000.
I went to Mark’s for lunch (chicken & cheese baked potato), chicken veggie soup and watermelon and apples for dinner. And yogurt!

Oh goodness, sorry to hear about the window! And wow, it's expensive to replace. But unfortunately, a necessity that you can't put off.

Mostly I am just watching everyone else. I am trying to take advantage of not working and get stuff done. That is bad about your window.

Food I had pierogies last night. I haven't had them for years. Nice for a change. I had a cauliflower, garlic, onion dish with them. You have a lot going on there. Think I am going to an event in the community today, and Monday is the picnic.

I feel like over the last 2 or so years money has just been pouring out of you. lol. I hope it ends soon.
For dinner it was another night of what's become a staple in our house. Fried rice with kielbasa, broccoli, onions and bell peppers with some teriyaki sauce and soy sauce. Yummy.

That's good they did all that....sorry about the window though.
Sounds like busy times still there!
Nothing going on this weekend. Monday though we will be putting flowers on graves at the cemetery...Some for family I never even got to meet. Some, more recent too.

It has been 9 years since we have replaced a window, and it was costly then too.
Your window must be a wide one for the price, I always found that wide windows were more expensive to replace as often had to be custom made.
Yesterday, we did Chinese for supper, I had a toasted bagel for lunch.
