I met with the roofer yesterday. I felt quite comfortable with them. They will be here next week to put the new roof on. I decided not to upgrade. It was $700 more and though is a "lifetime" roof I don't have that much lifetime left.
Today I got up early, went to Lowe's and bought soil, mulch and flowers. I picked out some marigolds, zinnias and petunias. Went to the home and spent almost all day in the yard cleaning up the raised beds, putting in some fertilizer infused soil and planting, mulching and watering in the flowers. I had help from Gil, an employee at the home and about 4 of the residents. We had a good time. One of the fellows, Archie, had company from out of town and they took pictures.
Cowboy was really helping a lot but he got really tired and had to sit part of the time and toward the last just went back to his room and sat down. They look really nice. Hope most of them make it.
I was so dirty, sweaty and tired when I got home about 5 I took a shower, watched a little TV, ate some popcorn and am now going to bed. There is a book on my bedside table. Wonder how many pages I will read before I fall asleep?
