Good morning!!!!

[300UGUY]

My neighbor lost his keys last week. He had his car towed and new keys made at the dealer. He found his old keys a couple of days later. Then asked me to look at a problem he was having, the car didn't start. I spent an hour playing with different things, no luck at all. He then had somebody else work on it, no luck, he even talked to a dealer mechanic friend. At the end, the old key doesn't work, the new key does.

 

[daugen]

it gets even worse.
I told my best friend what happened and he squawked
"you mean the remote locators we gave you last Christmas???"'

hmmm, yeah, the very same. Nabbed...
Dumb and dumber.
I wonder if those online mind strengtheners I see advertised will help?

 

[daugen]

yup, even worse...:dance1:

first tow truck company said they'd be an hour and a half, then they said half an hour more, half an hour more a second time, and when they asked for 45 the third, well guess what, strike three. I asked them to call an alternative tow truck company. Now that is is saying another thirty...this is almost entertaining.

We're about four hours into this road service call now. And when they call for the survey, could I mark all my responses
Excellent? Of course not you brainless twit.

Good Evening. 1750, cloudy, 55* with 75% humidity. Forecast low of 50* with 80% chance of rain tonight and 90% tomorrow. It was a dreary, cold day today. It barely got up to 60*.

Drew, when we got the Camry, it came with three of the smart keys. I had five dumb keys made and left one everywhere I was likely to lock my keys in the car. So far so good. If you find your keys before you have any made at the dealer's, they are cheaper at Walmart. Something like $50 compared to $75. Good luck.

You need some SRV in the mix...

Be well,

I think the time would be ripe for a little 'Couldn't Stand The Weather.'

Wow!! When we called Onstar around here, it was never more than 15 minutes, more like 12. I'd be very put off by that.

 

[daugen]

It wasn't Onstar and it wasn't an emergency, I just called Chev road service, maybe that was the mistake.
But with the ignition off and key out, didn't think Onstar would work.
They left fifteen minutes ago, the second tow truck firm, nice guy, going as fast as he could. Wasn't his fault.

Because this was not a roadside emergency vs. a pick up at owner's home, I think my priority dropped like a stone.
But a five hour response time is almost comical. It's completely dry nice weather out now, this was all caused by the first company contacted being pigs and accepting the call when they knew they were jammed up and couldn't respond for hours. I asked Allstate Road Service, who handles the program, to blacklist the first company, because they just kept lying and were caught at it.

and on that note, I think it's time for pie. Couldn't resist a three dollar apple pie marked down from eight since it was on its last use date. The pies are fine, sometimes the rolls are a little dry on the left over table.

All's well that ends well.

Thanks, now I'm craving apple pie! Enjoy a slice for me. Had the best slice of potato pie today I've ever had. Who knew that cream cheese could make a potato taste so good!

David (Mossflowerwoods) Better get your Thanksgiving menu planned! Should be fun.

Dave1949,

I'm keeping it simple... Smoked & roasted fresh turkey, smashed yukon gold taters, turkey gravy (my special scratch recipe), and a green veggie. My Kitchen is still a mess and the pans are all dirty...

But YES I suspect it will be FUN!

Did she trash the place on purpose before she left or are you the one that always cleaned?

Was wondering that also. Probably should document the fact that she was keeping the kids in "filth"..,.just in case you ever need any 'dirt' on her. Always better to have and not need rather to need and not have.

Are you gonna do a catered turkey day since your kitchen is still unfinished? All your descriptions sound fantastic and I hope you'll post up a photo or two when done. Remodeling can be exciting, especially when you are doing it.

Jim since 2002 we as a family have always gone to South Carolina for turkey day and this year will be no exception but this year will feature home cooked meals vs eating out. Supposed to leave on Wednesday if weather isn't to bad. Granite template was done today she will approve tomorrow and make decision on sink, which will prove to be difficult as size is a real problem which wasn't caught until today. This is the third kitchen redo we have done and somehow this slipped past us. Ref. is still on order and not in wine cooler is here as well as avantian oven/microwave. Still at least 13 days from completion. Kitchen cabinets are cherry, granite magma gold, bronze hardware glass doors on some cabinets like window panes with leaded glass , large storage cabinet for sweeper and even desk for me with file drawers and TV cabinet. This is her dream kitchen and hope that's what it is

Dressing (stuffing) in crock pot is good and doesn't use oven space. Yukon Gold taters :licking:

28 degrees calling for a few snow showers and then a high of 40 but look out here comes the rains for tomorrow
Better rain than snow right now though

Maybe a dumb question but how do you make dressing in a crock pot? Sounds like a solution.

Other than that, central-south Ohio is braced for a few inches of snow tonight. That's unusual this early and more than most drivers are used to. I'll expect to see at least a few cars upside down over on the side of the road and down in the bushes or cornfield stubble. Snow will be gone the next day but people here have yet to master the art of snow driving.

Drinking lots of coffee. 34° with heavy rain this morning. Heading to 42 with some icing early then more heavy rain. Up early this morning. Made it to Mooresville, NC yesterday. All setup until Sunday. Our son made it home late last evening. Hope ice does not set in. We are on the edge of "it may turn to freezing rain" area. Hope to visit some NASCAR places today.
Good Morning All.

Don & Dean,

I her defense - Moving is messy. The stuff left behind for me is older and has been in storage for over a year in the basement...

That said, she hates this place and did not like taking care of it, and it shows. I have mice in the kitchen, basement, and attic. I have "debris" in various spots. I am cleaning as I settle in.

I did not do all of the cleaning before, but I am amazing with a sink and a dishwasher and kept the pots, pans etc very clean, and they were hand wash calphalon in most cases...

Things are pretty peaceable between us. Mediation is about to start. I thing things will work out according to God's master plan over time.

I'm trying to keep the faith.

Be well,
David
