Don't know what I weigh. Don't want to know right now. Had a tough couple of days. I thought the mold issue under the house was being handled. Then the guy who was taking care of it told me he had done everything he could but there is still mold ingrained in some of the wood. The only way to get it out is to have it sanded and wire brushed and another "department" would be contacting me. I had asked him when I agreed to his bid of close to $7000 how long he had been doing this to make sure he wasn't new and that he knew what he was doing. He gave me a detailed bid and started working. Took one day, working all day and then he left with fans and de humidifiers running until everything dried out. So then I get an emailed bid from the construction department for the sanding, etc. $10,600+!!! To say I was upset would be a massive understatement. I called the corporate office to find out what kind of company increases the price of a job by more than 100% right in the middle of it. Of course, it was a holiday weekend and the person who had to listen to me could only say he'd have a supervisor call me this week. So now I wait and see. The person from the "construction" department did call me today and said he'd send an updated bid. Apparently he was on the phone with the first guy who was out here this morning to pick up his equipment. I'll also have to call my insurance company and speak to the person handling the claim to see if there is anything else they cover, like water damage. All the insulation under my house was removed because of the condensation that existed for several days.
I tend to eat more, not less, when stressed out. I'm trying to remain as calm as possible. Getting upset really isn't going to help. But I did get into a Costco apple pie (those are huge!) that I had planned on taking to my niece's house for the holiday. Since Thursday I've had 5 pieces and now the rest is in the freezer, hopefully to stay for awhile.
