my diet suffers from apathy

That's a good one!

When I threatened to cry, they set up a service call for tomorrow. If they can't fix it, they'll have to replace it. This is the same point at which my previous washer croaked (3-1/2 years) only this time I got the 5-year warranty.

Interesting. My wife always asks me to make such calls because she thinks service people show more respect to men. I’ll have to tell her about the ‘threatening to cry’ angle.

Most times, a warranty is nothing but pure profit for the salesperson, but there are times when it pays off. A family the size of yours can’t afford to NOT have a service policy on a washer.

Busdaddy needs to get his CDL renewed, and that is proving to be a job for Superman. I’m not getting involved in it. He can do his own legwork.

I just made a batch of cookies, but most of them will be given away. I will allow myself one or two a day and freeze what I can’t use because “out of sight, out of mind.”

And this, after I cleaned the kitchen! LOLZ!

Tomorrow, if I feel up to it, I will bring in the bookcase parts and get them assembled so I can put it behind the door. It’s the perfect spot. It won’t detract from the room space because the door already does that when it’s open. :o]
