Today I banged out one item on my 101 list by giving the roofer the last third I owed him. The roof is officially done and I can cross it off my list. I hired Tim Gross who owns Inside Out Construction based in Glenmont, NY. He did a bang up job. He's not the cheapest dude, but he was thorough and professional. He corrected some design flaws in the old roof so I should have less problems. Sweet. It cost me a new car's worth of money, but it needed to be done.
Here's a picture of my house from the driveway:
He took the trailer today, but still needs to grab some stuff. I know you can't see the roof well, but it has been replaced.
Tonight I tried a new recipe for
ginger beef stir fry that I found online. It turned out well even though it has an unusual taste. It's good, but unlike anything I've cooked before.
It has a fair amount of vegetables in it so it's healthy as well. I served it over brown rice.
I've now tried 33 new recipes. You can see my updated challenge list
here. I've only completed three items, but replacing the roof was a big one.
I've also started on my pushups challenge. I was able to do 8 for the initial test on Monday, but easily completed Day 1 after work today. I don't know if I'll get to 100 within six weeks, but I'll give it a shot. I'm feeling stronger which is never a bad thing.
