As someone who now has vertigo and a lot of dizzy spells From three concussions, PLEASE be mindful of that for yourself.

You may have no idea of how wobbly you might be until you try to climb something more than a stepstool and find out you can’t. Believe me, that is a sinking feeling to know you can’t do your own stuff, but it’s not worth losing your balance and falling off the ladder, as I trust when you use the term “barn roof” you need more than a two-step stepstool😇😇

BTW, the bee stings lasted ~3-1\2 days relieving the arthritis in my hand. If I thought I could direct them to the spot in my lower back, I might go stand at the other pipe gate and hammer away😂😂. Turns out this is a very old remedy in parts of the southeast United States. The project manager of my new pest control company said his grandfather had rheumatoid arthritis and raised honeybees. When the pain in his hands got so bad, he would go get a couple of honeybees and let them sting him in the hand to relieve the pain for a few days.😳😳

Thanks for your concern.. Yes I need a very long ladder to get up onto the roof, it's pitched roof as well so I can't actually stand on the roof much as it would make life easier if could... ..I have to do these things myself now the O/H has gone.. fortunately I don't suffer dizzy spells.. but I do find it's harder to get up and down from the ladder than ever before.. I seem to find the rungs much further apart when I'm coming down..😖

I had the barn roof done at the beginning of the year , and paid a handyman to have it all re-covered... but that is all falling apart already, so I don't want to call that same guy again.. but finding someone else affordable is proving difficult... ...thanks tho' for your concern.. I try to be as careful as I can..

Thanks for the info re the bee stings.. and the OA.. I couldn't allow a bee to sting me on my sore hands to relieve the pain of the OA ..I wonder if there's another way of getting Bee Venom... without the pain..

I have used spray adhesives and Silicone on Roofs that got hit by a branch from a tree, they break and big end basically
falls 1st to ground cause it heaviest and thas how gravity works a lot of the time. That heavy end can do lots of damage
but Doll thas how you fall too!

Your months from moving a ladder, hauling a Step ladder. Just call a handyman and tell him urgent and you're hurting.
Your insurance company will send one to you now, not next monday.
There are company's that spray roofs . ... :coffee: ...

They will be there in the morning to look it over and give you options, that adjuster know stuff.
Your taxes paid, they paid at due date, they not gonna ignore a huge property claim due to
thems lack of ability to get it fixed. They know who they want doing stuff too.

I bought another set of no-show socks that have bits of silicone on them to prevent slippage. Ingenious! I'd bought a set of four a couple of weeks ago to try them out while out of town. Turned out they stay put on my feet, are comfy and wash up well, so I bought a set of 8 yesterday. They're very comfy and it looks like I don't have socks on when I'm wearing sneakers. (My preferred look.)

Since they don't show, I bought all white instead of a color assortment.

Next step is to trash my old "no show" socks that slide down to the middle of my foot within an hour.

Well, went nuts and bought more Amazon items. Not a long list, but another $500 I'm having to pay off.

Now I'm wondering who I should torture. I have a Doogee phone, can tolerate t-mobile (barely) at 4G. Otherwise it's useless.

Anyway, more fun and games
 
I got a 3 part bargain today at Albertson's, they had a fantastic sale at the deli. Buy 1 lb. of Kretschmar London broil roast beef Normally $15.00lb. on sale for $12.99. Get part 2 & 3 free

Part 1. It was a little over a lb. Cost $13.88 I asked for & got that amount chipped. Going to use for Philly cheese steaks. Should be able to make 4 steak sandwiches.

Part 2. a free lb. of Kretschmar provolone cheese normally $10.99 a little over 1 lb. @$11.26. I vaucmmed repackaged for use in a variety of possibilities.

Part 3. Ham off the bone normally priced at $12.99 about 1 1/4 lb reg. price would have been $14.48 I asked for thick 1/4 inch slices that is why there was more than a lb. I got 4 slices to use for ham & egg meals.

Reg. price total would have been $39.12 3 part bargain total cost to me was $13.38

I had to google a Doogee phone🤠

What caught my eye was the fact that you have T-Mobile. I hate them and the reason I hate them is I literally crushed my skull open a year ago under the overhang of the barn. I heard my skull crack open. I could barely get up, but I knew I had to because I had to have my husband to the cancer center for his treatment in four hours.

T-Mobile was not worth the powder to blow it to the next county and back. I could not get a signal, not even under the overhang, and wide open on three sides.

I switched back to Verizon, who, while they tiss me off with how much money they charge, I can at least get a signal under the overhang and also inside the metal barn.

My point to saying that is T-Mobile is worthless. I wouldn’t be so quick to throw your new phone under the bus. You might try switching to Verizon first if you can afford the upfront cost to change.

No that's the problem with this phone it won't work on anybody but T-Mobile. I've done a web check IMEI check and it always comes back that T-Mobile can handle it but only at 4G.

I too have not been impressed with t-mobile, that's why I did switch over to Mint mobile, but it's been acting up a bit and I'm kind of debating about going back to Verizon myself.
 
My vision has gotten so bad that I finally broke down and bought a new television.

55” Samsung Crystal Smart Television

It’s old technology, inexpensive, but light years ahead of what I had.

I retired the rabbit ears today along with my AirTV.

Samsung provides an enormous amount of free content, too much for me.

I need to experiment and create a short favorites list.

The good news is that I don’t have to get out of my chair and walk to the television to read the program information! 😉🤭😂
 
New glasses. They sure are expensive even with the seniors’ discount. The last pair were too heavy and too large. Now the style is really large and I had a hard time finding a smaller pair that I liked. Time to look for a new pair of fitovers (you know, those ugly sunglasses that cover your regular glasses). Transition lenses aren’t enough for me.
