I was just at the much-hated WalMart and was surprised to hear "Blister in the Sun" by the Violent Femmes playing over the PA system. It was cut off halfway through by a country song.  ha2ha

RIP Robin Williams; my heart aches for your family and for how terribly you must have been suffering. Depression sucks, for lack of a more sophisticated term.

Yes. I echo everything you've said.

Lucky! That freakin' woodchuck ate the leaves off the ones my daughter planted. They blossomed but there's nothing else there.

They're a pain for sure. I had one sitting on his haunches looking in the fence but the plastic weed mat cover scares them (I think)! I spent most of my spring building this thing and it's paying off now. I didn't plant till the first week of July but everything's catching up now. I've got some fine tuning to do this month and then I'll send some pictures.

I'll have to show those to my daughter. Of course she probably won't be here next year to put any new ideas to work. I wish she would have majored in something with job prospects around here.

Isnt it horrible when you get an unexpected bill to pay  >:(

Yesterday I walked outside and noticed my home sewerage tank was literally overflowing  !!

So a call to the service Co resulted in a man being there in an hour and an $800 bill for a new pump  :o

One of those things that cant wait  ha2ha

I got an unexpected expense a couple weeks ago. 

My washing machine died 2 Fridays ago right after the wash cycle. It didn't even have the decency to drain the water out so I had a full machine of towels and water.

Fortunately, I have a Shop Vac so I was able get most of the water out. I hoped since the water was out that the spin cycle would work so the towels wouldn't be as wet when I pulled them out. Yeah, right.

I went on Sears.com to look for a new one. Their earliest delivery was 8/7. Uh, no. Homedepot.com was 8/6. Nope. Then I went where I should have gone in the first place-Lowes.com. I ordered a washer at 7:30 that night, and it was delivered at 9:00 the next morning and they took the old one away.

$620.00

My washer did the same thing last Friday, the day before we had company from GA! I got it working though. Can't go heavy on the towels though!

I've always worried that would happen with my washer. (P.S. My son's watching the Eagles/Patriots preseason game right now; he's so thrilled that it's on TV.)

I feel for you both; there is never a good time for those big unexpected bills. And they usually do involve something that must be fixed ASAP.

But you can't see overflowing sewage anymore, so there's that.

My apartment complex has a laundry room, but I'm not playing the "sit at the dryer and make sure nobody takes your stuff out and puts theirs in anymore". 

The Eagles are a mess tonight.  Oh, well, it's pre-season.
