You can never have too much insulation. Plus it pays for itself. I doubled all of insulation in my attic from R18 to R36 and silicone sealed all cracks. My all electric monthly bills dropped from over $300/mo to around $130/mo in Jan and Feb. Huge difference in comfort and the heater never kicks on until it gets to 36 degrees outside. Much cooler in summer as well.

I'm leaning towards the roof, but not now ... money, weather and my bones do not like to work in the cold ...

I still have some homeowners labor left in me ... won't pay for someone else to blow an attic.
