thanks kay.

There were only 7 reviews posted on thumb tack website. Another site that he was listed under there was only one review. He doesn't have a web site of his own...so I wonder about that.
He has over 30 years experience so that is good.

I wonder how you are feeling this morning.

Thank you for your support.
I have been Af since august 1st. will abstain and continue dieting up until friday when we go to the beach. Bush whackers think chocolate frosty! very fattening!!!
I have lost 4 pounds since aug 1st, bet it is water weight loss from bloat but I will take it, surly there has to be some fat loss!!!!!
I don't want to go over board in florida this weekend. I will try real hard to eat well since we eat out every meal.
Had chipotle last night...very good but too much food and very salty.

It might be that his best references he can give in person. Usually they
can give you names of people to contact. Lots of our older folks
in business don't have websites.

Good luck with the diet.

Places with hurricanes or tornadoes need windows that are built to the

Red face

I ate a low carb pizza tonight.
They must have changed them up a bit.
It has a kibbi crust but this was thicker than usual.
I had to eat it with a fork.
Did not taste as good either, very disappointing.
It did have yummy well seasoned eggplant and red peppers.
I only ate half of the 10 inch so will have the rest tomorrow maybe for lunch.
Lapizzeria had a special buy one get one free! So hubbys chicken alfredo was on the house.

Glad that he is home.
He is in bed already he only had 5 hours of sleep last night.
I need to get off this computer.

I don't know if it's because of the cost or maintenance involved, but a lot of small businesses choose not to have websites. As Donna mentioned, older people in business are less likely to have them. I find it frustrating at times. At least the repairman you hired uses email.

I'm sorry the pizza wasn't better. Is it really low carb crust if there's so much of it? Maybe another pizza place in your area has a better version. At least you can eat the tasty toppings… maybe you can pick them off and eat them with some rice?

I think you've been doing great! You can be naughty on your vacation and return to your restrictions when you come back home

Thanks kay,
I have the two companies to check out. one small company and one big company, both from thumb tack.
I have yet to call either company. I need to do that because I have written both of them and they have answered quickly.
I will get 2 bids from both of them.
One bid for just repairing the outer area surrounding the window that is the only wood of the house that is rotting and replacing that bed room window and another to do that repair and then replace all of the other windows.
I need to do that soon.
have a great day yall!

You don't owe anything to either of these companies since you are the customer. Take all the time you need.

I called and contacted the smaller company and cancelled the appointment saying I would call him in the future next week.
The rotting wood has been this way since we bought the house, albeit it is worse now, that was 15 years ago.

I broke my diet. went to whole foods and had a burger, went home and had spinach and onions and mushrooms sauteed. It was very good.

Jeff and I are leaving tomorrow for a quick trip to pensicola beach florida.
It is supposed to rain all weekend from a weather front/activity.
Oh well.
Hoping that it doesn't pour,
will have to go to a museum or 2 if it does rain.
All beach activity will cease.
My bipolar is acting up, been hypo for a while now.
Missed some appointments at work.
NOT GOOD!
Called a friend and she helped me talk out a solution for one of my clients that I missed an appointment. Send him a gift certificate so I did just that this afternoon.

I freaked out yesterday.
A nurse called me and asked me about my credentials. She wants to start her own foot care business, HERE where I live.
YiKes! Why would I help my competition?
So I called all of my friends, all professionals in different fields.
some thought I should not call her back. Others thought I should text her pointing her to the way of the state board of nursing for directives. others thought that I should return her call.
I am going to think on it.

It was good of you to follow up on your initial call to that repair business to let them know you were putting the estimate off. Many people wouldn't go through the trouble. And like I said, there's no rush.

Regarding the nurse who contacted you about starting her own business:
Follow the advice of your friends who suggested you text her to refer her to the the LA Board of Nursing. That way, you don't have to disclose your own credentials, you are not encouraging competition in your own area, and you are discouraging her from asking for advice from you in the future (which would likely happen if you were friendly when you returned her phone call). Do not provide anything to her in print via email either… you don't want anything coming back to bite you in the ***.

Considering how long your hypo episode has lasted, I recommend you contact your pdoc when you get back from your vacation so you can shut it down. It's not resolving on its own, and it's best to get it treated before it gets worse

I'm sorry to hear that the weather is going to be so bad on your trip
I hope that you and Jeff can still manage to have a good time visiting those museums and you enjoy eating out at some nice restaurants (my favorite thing to do when vacationing).
