I got the estimates from Burgin roofing today. He inspected the roof and the only damage he found was where the leak is.  He said my roof is in pretty good condition should last another year at least after the repairs. The repair will cost 500 bucks. That I can handle. The quote for the roof replacement is $11.877.00! I’m going to have it repaired and start stashing away cash for the new roof. It should last at least 2-3 years more after the repair. The other roofer I had look at it 2 years ago also estimated 1 more year. They did the roof right when they built this house in 2003. This takes a load off my mind.

Like many enforcement tools it seemed like a good idea but has been abused. I worried about it when I routinely carried 10k or more in my truck for expenses. One dept, (iirc, Park City Utah) even paid officers a commission based on seizures.  The idea of seizing property without a conviction or even charges being filed makes my blood boil.

Getting a Trane system. I qualified for 0% APR financing for 60 months. The monthly payment will be about $225.00. They're gonna install it on July 7.  It will be nice to turn on the AC in this heat wave. It's currently 90 degrees inside my house. I am gonna miss the $76.00 electric bills thought!
