Water was SHOOTING to the ceiling. Took me a stunned second to turn off the tap. Not too much damage done.orenetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616103982088424715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-8970923067873594962008-12-12T09:22:00.000-08:002008-12-12T09:22:00.000-08:00The life you live, C!!

You do a fantastic job of making me feel like I was there.<BR/><BR/>Of course, my man flies off to Bangalore and Penang, and the kitchen faucet falls apart, with the metal hose part lying under the sink now spilling out water.<BR/><BR/>It's a 2 person job, so I have to call Woody the Redneck contractor to bail me out. Only one problem... my dishes are piling up and Woody is a no show.<BR/><BR/>Luckily for me, that kimono quilt I just did is owned by a man, so while I'm giving him a bill for the quilting, I ask him sweetly if he could help me out with my kitch sink?? LOL<BR/><BR/>Life is good again! And I am so glad that India and Pakistan didn't decide to bomb each other while my man was visiting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-20971978272960498082008-12-10T14:57:00.000-08:002008-12-10T14:57:00.000-08:00LP, here is the question though...do you think tha...LP, here is the question though...do you think that they are incompetent idiots who should RTFM or do you honestly believe there is a problem. You see I always leave feeling like they think I am a totally incompetent dimwit, or that I am lying......<BR/><BR/>Kate, they are both better (THANK GOODNESS) and the heat is on (for now) along with the hot water. He was a great guy.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Trish, so far so good, as long as I don't catch it next.<BR/><BR/>Nicole, one of the things we have found out in our life and travels is that most of the people are actually nice. There are of course complete *-holes...as well, but most people are kind and good to be around.orenetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616103982088424715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-12236972802381228522008-12-10T11:07:00.000-08:002008-12-10T11:07:00.000-08:00It's great to run into people from time that don't...It's great to run into people from time that don't try to rip you off.<BR/>Hope the girls will feel better soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-5578262799174710072008-12-10T06:23:00.000-08:002008-12-10T06:23:00.000-08:00Oh well . . . glad it all worked out in the end.*p...Oh well . . . glad it all worked out in the end.<BR/><BR/>*phew*<BR/><BR/>Speedy recovery for the girls - being sick is no fun :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-55759419065157623332008-12-10T00:53:00.000-08:002008-12-10T00:53:00.000-08:00Hey, I just realized that you said two sick girls-...Hey, I just realized that you said <I>two</I> sick girls-- poor things.
