Been on a roll lately.
Blizzard on Friday night/Saturday. Not too bad as I think we only had about
8" of snow. Snowblower rope broke and could only shovel a little. Still have
much frozen in my parking slab.
Saturday morning woke to no water from the taps. Didn't know if the pipes
were froze or the park had a problem. Tried calling the office, but they
were closed so I left a message. Now my pipes didn't freeze during a week of
10F and less so I could see no reason for them to do so now.
Saturday evening my computer monitor burned a resistor inside of it. What a
wonderful smell that creates! I now own a new 17" lcd at $280. It is my
Christmas present to myself now. I was leaning toward a lazyboy. Not any
more.
Sunday we still had no water. Went to the Lodge to watch the football games
and play some cards. 8pm last night put my key in the ignition and the thing
was siezed up. Could turn the key no matter what I did!! #$%@##$
Got a ride home. Water was back on for some reason so that was a plus.
Called a mechanic this a.m. to have the truck looked at. Find out later.
The bright side of the coin is "it can only get better from here out"!

Gary, you'd have had no luck at all without all the bad luck. Sure hope
things turn around today and the car problem is not an expensive fix!

Gary I sure do feel for you. Why do things always have to happen at the
same time. During the blizzard one of my push out windows blew open
(the lock wasn't fastened and the handle froze). Snow was piling up in
my den because the window wouldn't stay closed. My usual fixes of WD40
or duct tape wouldn't help so I got a rope and tied it from the handle
of the recalcitrant window to the window above it. Today I find the
heater in the car has gone on the fritz which means no defroster in this
single digit temperature weather. Not to mention the two feet of snow
on my patio roof which is making it creak and hopefully not fall down.
Sheesh is right. Hope you get eveything straightened out soon.

(((((((Gary)))))))) You must have actually been glad to see Monday come! I
hope your week is the complete opposite of this past weekend.
