re: Paging Ronk: what's the right process to sodding new lawn in DFW clay soil?

Got my lawn mostly down to dirt. There are still some dead runners/roots visible, but I am going to be spreading 2 yds of premium soil(a mix of sandy loam and compost), so hopefully that'll be good enough?
My wife does have me rethinking laying the sod by myself though. She says a roll can weigh 30-50lbs or maybe more. 3 pallets is a lot and I need to get it all down fast so I can water it. I'm old and worried this may be too much labor for me.
Is laying 1400sq ft of sod back breaking?

I’m a bit jealous. You’re going to have some nice looking turf.
If you don’t think you’re up for it physically, just hire it out.
That’s not a huge area, but you should know your body well enough to make a decision.
