wow Blogger was down for a couple days and i couldnt post ...also have been super busy what with the patio, my art work, and yes the insurance company scenario--

thankfully i feel alot more optimsitic about the insurance problem as i met with a new adjuster yesterday at the damaged house... she had the copy of the first Proof of Loss for $40,000 which i never recieved and which she was totally shocked over... she had no idea there even was another Proof of Loss for alot less than the orginal one....
her paperwork didnt match mine and the figures were totally screwed up-- so we spent quite a bit of time just going thru everything line by line--

she said they disallowed $6000.00 because i didnt have a signed contract from a licensed contractor to do the repair work..but no one told me i had to have that either... the whole thing simply doenst make any sense at all and she agreed that i had lots of reasons to be frustrated,angry and confused.

i had made copies of every paper, my 8 page diary of the insurance fiasco from the very beginning back in sept and had her sign for them ... now she has everything and cant say she doesnt have any of the paperwork!!

so we will see what transpires in the next week or so-- at least i am alot more optimistic than before and hope there is a light at the end of this endless insurance tunnel

robert and roman came yesterday and worked on the patio-- got a load of sand, sprayed round up on the grass so we dont have to dig it out... and dug more out of the hole for the pond... robert had several other jobs to attend to so he left and said he would be back around 430 but the rains came and of course he coudlnt work...

today is a beautiful day-- sun is shining so i am sure he will be here around noon--

i am gonna work on the studio organization, and do some general clean up today-- so better get busy and get going before the day flys by!!
