Expensive afternoon

We visited Home Depot and bought our replacement washer.  It'll be here Saturday.  At least we could put it on 6 months with no interest, so we can pay it off quickly.

It was still more than I wanted to pay, tho.

Did you know...

....men can have hot flashes too?  I had two today.  That wasn't exactly fun.  I did finally get all the saplings cut down this morning tho, so that was something!

Disappointed

Went to dinner after work - steak was over cooked and potatoes were undercooked, almost but not quite raw.

I won't be going back there.  I'm sure there are a lot better places to go, so no big loss.

Slowly but surely

I'm getting the saplings cut down behind the garage.  The heat doesn't let me do much though without melting.  Maybe this weekend, when it's supposed to be cooler, I can get more done!

Pitch Perfect

watched this tonight - it was actually a pretty good movie.  Predictable ending, but the story was relatively cohesive, and the singing talent was pretty impressive.

Probably one we'll buy on dvd so we can re-watch it.

But it's a dry heat

yeah, well not here.  90 degrees, 50% humidity.  Bought some ice cubes, and between the store and the house, it had already partially melted.

Even my semi-working car air conditioner is blowing cool air for a change.  And people in the office are complaining when it's 75, saying it's freezing in there.

Maybe they should move their desks outside!

That stinks

The washer died tonight.  Now we have to find a laundromat until we get a new one delivered and installed.  Which could be who knows how long.
