Watch this to see a deer gone completely nuts. I’m amazed he lived through this

Last night we found a leak in a pipe, before it got to the "burst" point. (Heard dripping where no dripping should be heard).
Got it shut off before disaster, so yay.

Everything is pulled apart.
Husband went to 5 stores to get parts for it.

As he is fixing, a pipe breaks off in his hand - so more corrosion. Yay, we found it before it gave way.

No water, can't use bathrooms (or do laundry wash dishes, get a drink etc) so I pop out to use facilities at a nearby fast food place (I bought a coffee because it's polite) but as I'm getting ready to leave the house, my lace breaks and I break a nail at the same time. So, I head out of the house muttering and forgot my keys, no big - husband is still home, right? Nope - went out for more parts. Stood at the locked front door, tempted to bash my head on it.

Then I remembered I had used the patio door and hadn't locked it again, and it was still open so I didn't need to phone my daughter and wake her up to let me in. So, yay for that.

I work from home. Been trying to work on things in between "help me with" and "I need" and "go get".

We're hopeful he'll be done soon, but when he's done we will have a grand mess to clean up.

I'm about done with today, really. =_=

Thanks Glacier,
I hope so too!

I'm happy I have water again

That's one reason I have a push button lock on one door.

I can also open my garage door with my phone. (Smart garage door opener)

I hope your day has improved and hubby fixed the water issue.

Water issue fixed! Now apparently the thermostat on the car broke. Got a replacement, my handy hubby will be fixing that, next

Many, many things. He's good at all the things I'm not good at and I'm good at all the things he's not good at, and we respect that about each other. This year will be 32 years (married, 33 together).

I feel like I spend every weekend fixing cars! We have 4 on the road in our household (two kids driving) so something is always broken. I replaced my broken washer fluid reservoir on the weekend because Mrs. Glacier was complaining about how dangerous it is to be driving when she can't clean the windshield. I should have told told her to just stick her head out the window when driving, but decided to say nothing and replace it instead. This involved removing the bumper and such.

Then I tried to do the same to my son's car. But the replacement I have needs a plug because it has an extra hole so had to just tape his existing one up and put it back in. At least his hole is at the top and not the bottom like the other vehicle.

I couldn't start my diesel Jetta this morning because it was too cold (probably needs new glow plugs) so had to take the van to work. Good thing Mrs. Glacier doesn't have to go anywhere. My daughter's car has a dead battery so will have to deal with that when I get home.

I'm not complaining. I like fixing things. Would rather be fixing my car while listing to podcasts than sitting in the house watching something stupid on the TV.

Mrs Glacier is probably very happy to have a handy hubby too, especially one wise enough NOT to tell her to "just stick her head out the window"

I can't believe your littles are driving now! Let me get my cane . . .

WEM roller coaster...the mindbender is being retired and dismantled.
1986 new years eve. Harlequin was playing I think. Maybe it was platinum blonde. Can't remember but I was there that night in the pacific fish company restaurant on bourbon st. when it derailed. I had a salted ceasar and crab stuffed mushroom caps.Weird how details like that are remembered when a chaotic event happens.

Seems you’re munching on mushrooms now, OT, yes?

First time I visited the West Edmonton Mall was in the mid-90s with some friends. I chickened out for the roller coaster. But I didn't when I visited with my kids a few years back.
