Altruistic August Day 7: I haven’t had opportunity to give my help/time to any charitable causes/projects today (but I constantly have a charity bag on the go, for our local RSPCA shop). One project I have spent a lot of time on is our new roof…it’s been so time-consuming and stressful… Roofer 1 sent through his detailed quote yesterday (a day later than promised) and it has now become an ‘estimate’ and is suddenly £200 dearer than the agreed amount. 🤷🏻‍♀️ He hasn’t done anything, when he said he would, since the original meeting. Our patience has run out with this company. Roofer 2 has been much more on the ball, despite being 50 minutes late on the day of our meeting. He has come in £1300 less than roofer 1, has answered all my emails in a timely fashion and produced a quote for the agreed time. I texted another roofer this morning and, as I didn’t hear anything all day, I assumed he wasn’t interested. After telling roofer 1 that we weren’t going ahead after all, and telling roofer 2 that we’d like to set a date, roofer 3 texted me back. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m not sure what to do now. 😑 I guess it wouldn’t do any harm to let him take a look. Anyway, in other news, the lizard embroidery is now up on the wall. 🥳
