YOURS! W00t!
Just a coincidence ...
Kathleen wants to go to the park now. I guess we’ll find some shoes and go.
And without a bat, no less.
You’re welcome.
You know, given what you’re trying to train Kathleen to do, that last sentence was pretty - er - interesting.
Bats are optional.
I got a really nice card from a sometimes invisible boy. It made my day. ;o]
When I went out to check the mail Carlos was mowing the grass, and now I have to have a breathing treatment.
*sigh*
My BFF Jerry, at the Muffler Shop says it would cost about $50 to run a diagnostic on the truck.
I could try the place in Boulder City that broke my other truck, but I still owe them money, they say. So I don’t know what to do...
Well, that’s pretty annoying.
LOL!
REALLY annoying.
I have blisters on my left heel, and will have to go in the morning to get some antibiotic cream for it. I thought I had some, but I’m out. I even checked my truck first aid kit and all I found was one packet of antibiotic. *sigh* I’m also out of gauze pads and paper tape, so I need to replenish those, too. The only thing I have in abundance is anti-bacterial wash, cotton balls and cotton pads.
My feet are swollen for some unknown reason, and I can’t seem to get the swelling down... More salt, I think... But the swelling is why I have the blisters.
I really want to go to DMV Wednesday...I hope they give me a rebate for the year, rather than charge me, but I don’t know what to expect, never having done this before.
Life seems to be throwing me some curves, lately, and though they aren’t big ones, they are VERY, REALLY, HORRENDOUOSLY annoying.
Kewl!
Notice the other cats standing back. They’ve played this before.
Wise, those felines are... ;o]
PS: I wish I knew how to check for sure about the solenoid in my truck. Do you know how I can do that? I don’t like the idea of paying $50 for someone to tell me it needs a $30 part.
Now is the time I wish I had live-in mechanic... *sigh*
Ah, the old “death by a thousand really annoying curves” trick, eh?
*sigh*
When I was a young single mother, I was angered and upset by all the “I’ll be glad to help you if...” proposals. These days, they don’t even pretend.
It’s more like, “You’re too old to give me what I want, so go somewhere else.”
And I know of absolutely NO female mechanics.
Odd. I’m trying to remember this old vaudville song and I can’t find the lyrics on the Interthingie.
Why do they call them wild women?
Wild women, wild women?
Do they (something) or live in a cave?
I’ve never called on one that needed a shave!
Why do they call them wild women?
That’s been a puzzle to me?
Why do they call them wild women
When they’re just as tame as can be?
You’d think that’d be popular.
Well, if you had dentures...
Seriously, while men can be pretty awful, it’s also pretty expensive to run an auto shop. I would think the insurance alone would ratchet up the costs.
When I lived in NH I had a neighbor who ran a side business of fixing cars out of his detached garage. It went up in flames one night, probably due to the petroleum-based products he kept there.
Fortunately, his house was OK.
