OT - holiday weekend BLEECH
A MAJOR whine here, so ignore if you don't want to read it
Well, my holiday weekend is going to be veeeery expensive and somewhat painful. My AC finally kicked the bucket after almost 18 years of trouble-free service, and when I had people come in to place bids, I found out my furnace (same age and quality) is non-repairable. Seems that the company that made it died many years ago, and parts cannot be found anymore. So I asked for bids to replace just the AC all the way up to replacing the entire setup. YIKES! Minimum is $3400, maximum is around $8200! Wahhhhhhhh!!!!!!! And I just cleared off some debt! I really wanted to enjoy not having anything except the mortgage for a while, ya know? Pout! Moan! WHIIIIINE!!!!! On top of that, my chronic tendenitis has flared up so bad, the Dr is mentioning that maybe, just maybe, I ought to get the repair surgery he's been mentioning done. That's 6 - 8 weeks on crutches, followed by 4 - 6 weeks in a walking boot, followed by physical therapy. SCREEETCH! So - I hot, I'm CRANKY, I hurt, and it's supposed to storm all weekend, so I can't go out and play in my garden. HUMPH. OK, now I have to decide - what embroidery to I want to play with since it hurts to walk - finally finish Dimple Design's Rex? Start on test 5 of the Canvas Embroidry mastery? Start on test 1 of the Goldwork mastery? Hmmmmmm. Rant over. Fran |

And consider yourself hugged. Cheryl Fran, Ditto what she said! Sorry you're having such a stressful time - this is a fine place to whine. Just do whatever helps you get thru. And keep some cool cloths for around your neck to help keep the cool in the heat. Ellice |

Ellice I think I hear an echo. As Ellice said....do whatever it takes to keep cool. Nancy |
