Day 5 of de-construction

greenspun.com : LUSENET : CountrySide Family : One Thread

Today isnt even 1/2 over. Cant take the car to the muffler shop because it wont start. I had a mechanic friend come over to look at it and he cant get it started either. The land lord is now on his way back to the store because he says he now has to replace the bathtub. I still have no toilet - or a floor to put it on. I have to find the car insurance paperwork to see if it has towing. And find a place that fixes -> "those stupid forign cars".(that was not an exact quote). I now have a bigger headach.

Hang in there Sue. Just think when it's all over you'll have a new bathroom. Some days are just sh*tty. I ordered a load of lumber, they promised it today by 2, so I stayed home. I didn't get the call that they were on their way so I called them. Surprise the truck is broke down, has been since 7 am. So why couldn't they at least call so I could go do the errands? No reply :(

The furnace repair place still doesn't have the part for my furnace, come to find out they never put the order in the computer, just on paper so that's why I still don't have heat after a week. Now they want to come tomorrow and do it, too bad I've got appointments that I have to go to on Friday. They want me to leave the house unlocked-Ya Right! What ever happened to customer service?

Sorry, it's not been a good day for me either so I totally understand what you're going through except I have plumbing and you have heat. Will they have your place done by the weekend?

Warranty ran out in July of 2002. I did put in a call to the manufacturer and got the address, I'm sending a copy of the original receipt and this bill to show him that it is an actual replacement along with a request for at least partial coverage. We'll see if I get any reply.

I sent the candle to you almost 2 wks ago. I figured you'd just been too busy to send me a message with getting ready for surgery. It went out in the mail in a nice little brown box along with some KY persimmon & baby bottle gourd seeds.:)

Darn it all, after we've waited so long to get the original candle what else can go wrong? LOL I'll go to the post office monday morning and see it they can do a trace. I sent it by regular mail since shipping is high on boxes. If it doesn't arrive by mid week or I find out where it's at from the PO, I have one more here that I can send. This time I'll send it by insured mail though. Hopefully, it will get there or be on it's way back to me. Unfortunately, I don't have any more baby bottle gourd seeds but I do have more persimmon seeds.
