Replacing the roof is going to hurt. A wide swath of Austin got hit by that Good Friday hailstorm and had severe roof damage. The insurance will pay for part of it, but the amount they pay is basically what it would cost for the intern at Bob's Discount Roof and Bakery to do it, minus the deductible. On top of the birth and delivery fees, the new refrigerator, and all the A/C and heating improvements last October, it's been an expensive year, and the stock market hasn't been kind to us lately. Oh well. We have Uma.
