A new roof.
And, the $$$ to buy one....

It's impossible to sound selfish in this thread because this thread is all about YOU and not about others. So you're suppose to talk about yourself. It's about what we each feel we need right now...not want, but need. But if "want" slips in that's okay too...it's just a thread......That may sound selfish.
To do better with my diet. Actually today isn't too bad, I just need to stick to it.What Do You Need Right Now?
I think so, thanks for asking!Are you managing okay?
Oh, I need that too. Plus, a little psychotherapy might help.I need someone to swoop in and deal with all the things I haven't been able to catch up with... that's all. Then I could start with a clean slate and keep everything under control. We'd start with the weeding and downsizing of boxes in a spare room.
Can I go along?I need a nice long vacation on a tropical island where someone is bringing me Margaritas and I am just relaxing either on the beach or at the pool.![]()
Thank you Lara, I will look in to that.@dobielvr , didn't I see an ad on my phone somewhere that you can get a free roof from a government program if you let them put solar panels all over it? But I think there are pros and cons to that so watch out for free government stuff.
You didn't mention if you use insulin, or not ? I would assume so. Do you use an insulin pump ? Jimb.re: FuzzyBuddy's post #19 You can't change the world but you can change your diet!!
I have been a diabetic for 60 years (from age 19!!). I have 2 sons/1 daughter, widowed, live with my dog in the family home (for 40 years), walk 3 miles/day in all weather conditions.
I have "planned snacks" - fresh fruit, salads, crackers, piece of cheese, Greek yogurt. Cakes, cookies, high sugar items ARE NOT allowed into the house. With covid, I seldom meet friends for meals or coffee.
Our small Toronto 2 story house is valued at around a million, 2 hundred thousand if it were to be put on the market. A nearby 3 story full renovation sold for 2 point 7 million in June of this year, in just 5 days on the market. As somebody recently said....A million ain't what it used to be. JimB.Yeah, if you got a million bucks, it wouldn't go anywhere near as far as you imagined it would, and you'd just be all bummed out about that.
Sorry, forget the "Free" roof...I got curious and looked into it @dobielvrThank you Lara, I will look in to that.
That's ok.Sorry, forget the "Free" roof...I got curious and looked into it @dobielvr

_______________________________________
The phrase “free solar panels” (and free roof) is a misleading marketing tactic some companies use. There are no companies or government programs that offer free solar panels.
When you see the phrase “free solar panels,” it can mean one of the following things:
...Solar lease agreement
...Power purchase agreement (PPA)
...Government program for low-income households

If the offer doesn’t fit in any of the above categories, it may be a scam.
The Ad I saw was a scam. I'm sorry. Scams are all over the internet and phones Grrr
I reported my post and Matrix removed it.
We do have a sort of "webchat" here. It's in "Conversations". You can invite anyone to join your group. I think it can be private or open. I haven't been part of one for a long time so I forget how to set it up...but someone here can help you set that up. Let me know if they don't.Just as yourself, I've had a tough year since husband passed away. Plus this particular trouble stems back to 2019. Currently seeing the meter going down but switch over is only tomorrow.
So, nerves are shot. Wish we had some kind of webchat here in the forum. Would be nice to get opinions and get stuff off my chest. Thanks!
Thanks, I'll have a look at it on 1 August. Cheers!We do have a sort of "webchat" here. It's in "Conversations". You can invite anyone to join your group. I think it can be private or open.
