Only today...?
Just trying to breathe......
The last 7 months......
Had to buy an A/C window unit
(we don't have central, just 3 small window units and a fireplace and a couple of 1500 watt heaters)
and rewire that for 240 volt,....
Had to reframe 15% of my house wall (exterior) because the old window unit was leaking and rotted the studs and base plate,...
A $650.00 "replace window unit" turned into $1300.00 of rocket time/money gone...
Had to replace the front end of one of my vehicles, had to inspect/register the other vehicle, another $450.00 of rocket time/money gone...
And "winter is coming".....
Just bought a forced air heater, and the appropriate wire and breaker..... another $235.00 of rocket time and money gone...
THANK GOD I can do all the work myself,...
I can totally imagine what the labor would have cost because I did it myself and I know what I would have charged...
To do all that, I had to take off 6 or 7 days from work...conservatively lets say 6...another $1410.00 of rocket time/money gone....
On the good side, the house is COOL in the summer and looks like I'm saving about $100.00 or so a month on electric bill when the temps were near 100° and so far the heater is kicking @$$!!!
But back to today.....
Just trying to catch a breath...
