Ever try to eat a frozen apple? Then it started squeeking. That lasted for awhile. It finally died last Sunday. <BR/><BR/>It now resides in the front yard while garage fridge now lives in the kitchen. My kiddo wants to enter our yard in the yard of the month club for Redneck TV.<BR/><BR/>Plumber was able to repair leaking shower faucet without having to tear a hole in the wall. Thankfully he was able to get the handle off. Toilet fixed as well. To fix this one thing on the toilet he actually used a wire coat hanger. The only one I had in the house. I had to remove my wedding shower bows(from 20 years ago).<BR/><BR/>Then we were off to look under the kitchen sink as Dishwasher wouldn't drain since the last time Plumber was here (different plumber, same company) to replace the p-trap because we broke it trying to unclog the drain...<BR/><BR/> Anyway dishwasher worked great up until we unclogged the drain... after that it dumped water on the floor. So now 2 months later the stupid dishwasher won't even dump water on the floor. The pump is out.<BR/><BR/>I hate washing dishes.<BR/><BR/>It's a conspiracy!!Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06118805319319123639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10194064.post-1124487049393113772005-08-19T16:30:00.000-05:002005-08-19T16:30:00.000-05:00Well, Flo,Money does solve most things, but not ev...Well, Flo,<BR/>Money does solve most things, but not everything.<BR/>You should charge her a fortune to do her wedding.<BR/>Then if she's willing to pay it, it may be worth whatever other ditzy moments you have to endure with her.Jamie Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11036600186909466411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10194064.post-1124485721253602782005-08-19T16:08:00.000-05:002005-08-19T16:08:00.000-05:00*at the sound of the beep*....Is Flo there?

I am lucky that I live in an apartment complex which you have to buzz to be able to get in. And I have to activate the lift to my floor.

And why would a bride-to-be NEED a physical therapist? I hope she puts something more down in her date book for the day of the wedding.<BR/><BR/>About the repairs: In Mississippi it was the Rotor-Rooter man that brought the problems. If I saw his truck on our street you could rest assured that within two weeks I would be calling him after hearing that glurb-glurb sound in the toilet while taking a shower. Usually on a holiday or the day company was to arrive and ALWAYS on a weekend so higher rate.srphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11751987787364198318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10194064.post-1124418466944689852005-08-18T21:27:00.000-05:002005-08-18T21:27:00.000-05:00John, it has already started.

First the water holding tank (we're on a well) burst and then 3 days later, a pipe burst under the house and flooded the crawl space for the second time in a week. The next day the fridge started peeing all over the kitchen floor and one of our toilets doesn't want to flush properly. The last time we had a driving rainstorm, the ceiling leaked in our master bathroom (around the sky-light), and I had to go on Lasix for my own "water problems". <BR/><BR/>The oddest thing is: last week I read an on-line astrology site I check every month and it said that the planet Neptune (the water planet) is in my "house of home" for the next two years - so I should expect water problems in my house. Now they tell me!kenjuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342414519714356343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10194064.post-1124417798894049012005-08-18T21:16:00.000-05:002005-08-18T21:16:00.000-05:00Uh oh.

The fridge repair you speak of will almost certainly lead to plumbing rpoblems and other electric appliances malfunctioning. It's a conspiracy well known to my faithful readers. I described my own experiences in postings of several months ago, and my readers have weiged in with their own. Suffice to say that once it starts, the plumbing and wiring and appliances will work together against you to make your life Hell.<BR/><BR/>You'll see!
