If you're going through hell, keep going. ~Winston Churchill
"I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade... And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party" - Ron White
""I like the cover," he said. "Don't Panic. It's the first helpful or intelligible thing anybody's said to me all day." ― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
“Life may not be the party that we hoped for…But while we’re here, we should dance.”
I just shook, and then jetstream blew all the crumbs out of my keyboard because the keys were getting stuck or not working. Anyone would think I ate at my computer
Tannyrate, I now have enough crumbs to make a pie crust and start the process all over again And I can keyboard faster. Talk about a win, win, win situation.

Here it is! Post number 6,000 by yours truly. Scott is still at 5,997.
The plumber and his helper are here, trying to get to the root of the problem. Well, that is it, you see. The drain is partially obstructed by tree roots that the plumber's snake is having trouble getting through. This is a condo, so the part of the plumbing outside the walls is the responsibility of the corporation. Hmmm.
Nice - I knew today would be a good day for a phlip
Sorry you have a root blocking the path - but certainly glad it will be covered by your homeowner's association - now if the e-break will magically repair itself all will be grand!
Oh...the oven - mine is older than yours -- one of the old white porcelain gas stoves from the 30s that I love - made the hubby find one for me when we moved in 21 years ago - not sure I'd be in love with a harvest gold stove - at least it isn't avocado
... I now have enough crumbs to make a pie crust and start the process all over again
Lol
Now *that's* psilly.

Peter Diagnosis by biopsy of practically non-existent villi; gluten-free since July 2000. Type 1 (autoimmune) diabetes diagnosed in March 1986 Markham, Ontario (borders on Toronto)
Burnt orange shag is back!!! well they call it my some other term - my folks replaced their "custom" shag from the 70s in their family room with a very close match - my Dad said - "No, this is not shag" - still laughing because no matter what the designers call it -- this kid from the 70s calls it shag - period
My first house had avocado appliances. The fridge was a Norge with flowered vinyl contact paper in the bottom (because it was cracked). Lots of shag carpeting throughout. The nice thing was that it had some really nice hardwood floors underneath.

Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.
This quote from Shroomie (from a perfectly legit thread) is too good not to be posted in THIS thread:
I refer to them as bunny scat. I once knew a "head of household" who decreed that two sheets of tp was the maximum allowed. I said I bet he shat bunny scat. Never heard of the big D!!

I KNOW that insecure, broken-roof feeling (post-quake it was).
But during a remodel, during which the builder was putting on a real pitched roof to replace our tar and gravel jobbie) I arrive home from the gym, in the rain, to find the crew hard at work on the exposed roof. I scream and yell, don't you know it's raining!!??? and they tell me they don't call that rain. So I go inside and find water dripping out of my light fixtures (including my walk-in closet) and all buckets and bowls packed away and desperately finding containers to put on hardwood floors and towels for mopping and plastic for covering, and "GET A COVER ON THAT G********D ROOF!!" and this being California where it never rains in June they had to drive to the hardware store and buy Visquine (Sp?)
