Jay and I moved here to Florida full time, 25 years ago. We were snowbirds for 20 years before that...so Florida was pretty much in our future. Our first home was Boardwalk Caper, Fort Myers Beach, and we were from Avon, Indiana so it was a real change for us, but once our metabolisms adjusted, it was the best move we ever made...we were so happy that we finally made it a full time thing!

We moved two more times, finally settling in our beautiful little forever home in the community of Heritage Cove...a little further inland by a mile or so, but what a great place to be. We worked, played, boated...so many things, so much fun, so much life to live. Losing Jay was not part of the plan...and for now, a little bit of the joy of my home has diminished.

But moving forward...a little grayer, a lot wiser, a bit worn at the edges, I still so love where I live. The people, the area, our friends, our home, bottom line...in spite of everything it is and has been a truly wonderful life and life is good, I know that. I miss him so much and every single day is touched with the little things that remind you of the loving, kind, generous person he was...but I will find my new normal...eventually!

In the meantime, to all of you who have been part of our lives, then and now, to all of those who helped, reached out, made the pain a little easier...thank you so much:

To Tom, Janet, Larry, Karrie, Connie, Adrienne, Vickilou, Ann, Tami, Jeff, Steve, Tonya, Robbinn, Joe, Mario, Kathy, Cindy, Terri and the Legion for helping put his Celebration of Life together; to everyone who came and paid their respects and to roast and toast him; to Brenda, Carol and Ann for helping with Daisy we are both greatful; to Karrie, Ann, Sandy and Tonya for helping with work and all things real estate, so needed; to Todd and Tami for helping me with all the necessary paperwork that boggles your mind, you keep me sane; to my neighbors who are so very supportive and so many more...it's impossible to name everyone, but each of you have made a very hard time a little easier.

You are all so very wonderful, my heart is broken but so full of love for all your kindnesses. God bless you and know you are all in my prayers as well.

Love and Hugsssssss ~

This makes me chuckle because it is so true. It's a good example as to why prices are the way they are right now. Plus...the materials costs have gone sky high. But it comes down to getting what you pay for and getting it done right!

CLIENT – How much will it cost to do this job?
CONTRACTOR - $2,800 dollars.
CLIENT – That’s too expensive!
CONTRACTOR – How much do you think it should cost?
CLIENT – $800 max! It’s a simple job!
CONTRACTOR – I can’t do the job for so little.
CLIENT – People in your line of work wants to make a huge profit!
CONTRACTOR – I’m sorry you feel this way. Why don’t you do it?
CLIENT – But, but, I don’t know how to do any of that.
CONTRACTOR – For $900, I can teach you everything you need to know to do the job. You can then use $800 to do the job, and you’re still saving $1,100. Also, you will obtain all the knowledge and the experience for the next time you need to do this job.
CLIENT – Deal!
CONTRACTOR – Great! To start, you need to buy tools. You will need a chipping hammer, a nail gun, a laser, a drill, a mixer machine, PPE, and some other things.
CLIENT – But, I don’t have any of those tools and I can’t buy all that for just one job!
CONTRACTOR – Ok. I can rent you my tools for another $300. You’re still saving $800.
CLIENT – That’s cutting my savings, but I will rent your tools.
CONTRACTOR – Perfect! I’ll be back Saturday and we can start.
CLIENT – Wait! I can’t Saturday. I only have time today.
CONTRACTOR – I’m sorry, I only teach others on Saturdays. I have to prioritize my time and my tools needs to be in other jobs I have during the week.
CLIENT – Ok then. I will sacrifice my family’s plans on Saturday.
CONTRACTOR – Right, me too! Oh, I forgot. If you’re going to do the job yourself, you need to buy the materials. There’s a high demand nowadays, so your best bet is to get a truck and be at the hardware store by 6am before other contractors get there.
CLIENT – AT SIX IN THE MORNING? On Saturday? That’s too early for me. I don’t even have a truck!
CONTRACTOR – I guess you’ll have to rent one. By the way, do you have some helpers to help you load the truck?
CLIENT – You know what? I’ve been thinking. Probably is better for you to do the job. It’s better to pay you to do the job right and not having to go through all that hassle.
CONTRACTOR – Good thinking. Sign here and let me get to work.

This is the truth. People are not just paying for a job, they are paying for knowledge, experience, tools, time, family sacrifices, and other things brought to the table. If you have a job you want done...use the right person with the right tools. It's common sense! 💕
