Daris, I've found that insurance companies will almost always say it was someone else's fault/responsibility to get out of paying for it. Electric company will also turn around and say that it's on your end and that you have to pay to fix it. I had power company people refuse to fix something...

Oh wow! CJ that steamer thingy is impressive! Highup, that flooring install with the curves around the metal is also impressive. Daris, glad you were able to put the fire out but sorry your siding melted. I need to get some siding replaced on my house. Need to see if they even make the same...

Tom, I hope your son recovers quickly. Sounds like he had some nasty RSV or something. AC still isn't working. I got up and tried to troubleshoot but don't know what is wrong. The outside unit takes almost 10minutes to turn on after I tell it to cool or set it to auto and it isn't cooling...

CJ, your projects are looking great! Wish I wasn't a total uncoordinated monkey. If you had a youtube channel showing your projects I'd subscribe. My douchewaffle brother has been dropping trash on the floor again and not picking it up. I got these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077W4ZCM5 to...

Highup, that sounds like a nightmare but I'm glad you finally got it fixed. Rusty, I hope your heartrate is back to normal. CJ, nice work, as always. Ooh, food. I don't know if I had a sinus infection, stomach bug or what, but last week I got sick the night before Mom had an appointment...

LOL. There's a guy on Twitter named Tom Nichols who gets absolutely enraged about people taking their shoes off on planes and even more enraged about people putting their feet on the wall. He has long rants about it. highup, I hope you find a solution that works. Wonder if my friend would know...

Oh man, I loved Gallagher and George Carlin! Bill Cosby was really funny too but it's a shame about his personal life and nasty proclivities. Weird thing is we had some friends who all had kids within months of each of us. They were my brother's godparents. Found out that my brother (the...

LOL! My polled (hornless) cow is too skittish around people but her mother has big horns. Yesterday was a waste. I was feeling sick most of the day. My sister called for my birthday but my brother picked up and kept interrupting me, talking over me, and then screamed at me when I was trying to...

Rusty, I'm glad you're feeling a little better. My dad had an orange cat when he was a kid. Well, it was supposed to be his sister's cat but the cat liked him better. He had a fondness for orange cats because that cat was so loving. Pissing in shoes and all over stuff is not just an orange cat...

Highup, Yup! I've also stumbled around in the dark and turned light switches when the power was out. Glad you can dim the lights behind the new gauges. So cool that you were able to do that. I hope you'll be able to get the parts you need to finish the job. I just remembered something that...

Rusty, I hope everything goes well at the hospital. Looks great, Highup! So, the little tabby kitten (that got kidnapped by the kid next door) ended up dying. Found her cold and barely breathing on the porch. Rushed her to the vet and they did what they could for her but she didn't make it...

Rusty! I was just about to ask if anyone had heard from you and how you were doing. (((HUGS))) So glad you're out of the hospital. Went to the court thinking it was friend's ex's trial but it was just a custody hearing so I had to wait out in the hallway. Not sure what happened but pretty sure...

I hope its ok to necro this post since I'm still working on this project. Got the new back door in (sample of the new flooring is sitting in front of threshold). Had to replace the jack studs, trim the cripples, and put in a proper header above the door. It's nearly perfectly level/plumb. The...

Oh wow CJ, that is an amazing job! I don't even think the toekicks need caulking because you got those cuts so smooth. Customer better not complain. LOL about you consulting the rings in your coffee mug! When we were using construction adhesive to secure the new door sill, the tube blew out. I...

Mom woke me up around 2am wanting food. So I fed her and went back to bed. Got up and made her something to eat again this morning and decided to use up some rotisserie chicken meat that smelled & tasted a little stale. Got my new little blender, put some chicken in, added water, and it turned...

Highup, I hate when people just pull in front of you or do stupid **** so you have to slam on your brakes. I actually had to back up today because i was pulling out of a parking lot to get on the street when a car changed lanes to move from left lane to the lane I was pulling into and the idiot...

Sorry your old man passed, CJ. Mine passed in 2009 and sometimes it still feels like yesterday. I'm glad you took in his kitties. I'm a sucker for kitties too. I'm exhausted. Got up at 5:30am to clear a path to back door so friend could take out the old one and put in a new one. required some...

Rupert ate an entire packet of Friskies Lil Shakes-- basically chicken puree. He's been restless and walking around in circles and fussing so I took him for a walk outside. He followed me off the bed through the kitchen, through the front room, out the front door, down the sidewalk and on to the...

How is Rusty feeling? I hope he's doing better. Been so wrapped up taking care of Rupert I've lost track of things. He eats on his own but has trouble. He accidentally pushes the food out of the bowl because he aggressively smashes his face into the bowl trying to eat ravenously. He's...

Thanks CJ. I know it could be worse and I get frustrated sometimes but its worth it. I wouldn't wish caring for a dementia patient on anyone. That is really rough. They can be difficult to manage. Rupert went from not even being able to lift his head to standing up and climbing on my lap and...
