I did the same thing several years ago, either late May or early June in the attic of the house crawling around under and over the AC ducting and trying to avoid having my head and shoulders impaled by the thousands of nails that were protruding from the plywood by at least an 1" or more. Trying to get around the AC ducting made me feel like I was Catherine Zeta Jones in this scene.
I did the whole attic with R-25 over the top of the old rock wool that was already up there. I think the materials cost about $450, and we made that back in less than a year. It sucked, the attic temp was between 125° and 135°. I took numerous breaks for water and would put a cold wet towel on my head when I came down. It sucked, but it was worth it. I just wish I'd done it 15 years earlier.
