I made plans to be 3 hours away from here so I don't have to answer the door or buy candy or listen to the dogs bark. :) I'm not sure the kids around here really get it. They knock, and when I answer, they just kind of stand there. We were irritating little shits screaming 'trick or treeeeeeeeat'. They just freaking stand there.

Ya, we were gonna add-on a machine room, but with the g'kids losing their parents and the wife sick, we just never got around to it

Soooo pissed right now...

That really does suck @Midniteoyl. Would your homeowners ins. take care of any of that? My deductible is too high to even think about it but my brother had some water damage taken care of twice.

Did some shopping at the MX store, found awesomeness.

They keep getting better chiles in, and still only $6/lb for "Orange Habaneros". (very light peppers, so cheep)

These monsters look like they crossed with some Scotch Bonnets,Scorpions or even Jolokias ... :D

*Click pix for larger as usual*




And, some very simple Guacamole that they make there in the deli. Good basic stuff that I can spice up. ;-)
8oz for $4 isn't bad considering the price of produce these days...and I'm lazy.

I don't plan on answering the door. Problem solved.

Here's one reason why:

I woke up late today after being kept up from the damned windstorm crashing around until like 3AM.
When I went to go to the store, I found this mess left for me right in front of my door by some drunk transient fuckwad. No, that stain wasn't from liquor...at least not at first...



Yeah, screw all the people around here....and their crackbabies too.

Sorry man. That truly sucks.
Our AC condenser coil sprung a leak and dripped water all over / in / though our furnace last year. I had to have the coil replaced, and I replaced the blower motor. It wasn't terribly difficult; take lots of photos while you're unplugging stuff, make labels when necessary, and take your time. IIRC, the blower motor was around $150. Fortunately the control boards were still good, so I saved at least that much...

Right after that AC coil went out, we bought a home warranty. We've got a 2nd identical unit cooling the upstairs, and I had a bad feeling it was gonna go to. Sure enough, about a month after we fired it up again this spring, out it went...

Okay, there is no other phrase right now that is more appropriate than "That Sucks!".

I don't know what we would do right now if some major problem popped up with the house. We though the AC died at the beginning of the summer, but thanks to YouTube and a couple of handy man web sites, I was able to fix it myself by changing out the capacitor, PHEW!

Our washing machine crapped out shortly thereafter, and I had to use up the last bit of room on my Lowe's card to replace it. BTW, don't buy Whirpool front loading washers. They have a known issue with the metal arm that holds the drum and even though it can't be replaced without replacing the tub, it isn't covered by the tub warranty. Apparently they have had enough issues with this that their CS reps know what to say immediately upon referencing the "spider arm" so you are hosed.
