loan sharking

the other night I ordered pizza but didn't have a couple of bucks for the tip, I don't like to put it on the check so I told Connor I would borrow a couple of dollars from his wallet. Had to explain the point of tipping but he was ok with it. First thing out of his mouth when I picked him up yesterday-do you have my dollars yet mommy?

fever watch 2007

so David's fever broke and he is planning on going to work today & road trip tomorrow! Mom said he wouldn't ever be getting that pony from them if we didn't show up. I'm afraid one day that might actually buy him a real pony...

fixed?!

after showing up almost 2 hours later than the 4 hour window repairman dude seems to have fixed the fridge yet again, something about 2 wires or something I have no idea, David took care of it as he was home early, sick yes sick-fever, chills aches & pains sick and only days away from a car trip to see my family. Hopefully he will have a miraculous recovery or I will be making some very disappointing phone calls tomorrow evening...

12 ;44

got a phone call that they would be there within the hour..David is now home to deal with the situation, didn't know they already had the "good cop"

ongoing saga of the fridge

yes it is ongoing indeed, so I left messages friday & monday-called a bunch of times without leaving a message on both days, tried different numbers-work, home, cell, david tried absolutely no response. Yesterday I sent an inquiry to the BBB and I called Patterson's which is the store the recommended Appliance Source to begin with, the gentleman was nice & polite got my name and said he would call them. I honestly had written it off, figured I would sent a hateful letter to them another to Patterson's, follow through with the Better Business Bureau and find out it there was some electrical board or someone I could file a complaint with then go buy a new fridge anyway so I did not call this morning at all but on a whim tried a little while ago but did not leave a message. Lo and behold within in minutes I got a phone call back, some bullshit about she had left me a message which I know she did not, maybe she called the wrong number well I left my number each time I left a message and I know they have caller ID-anyway they are suppose to come out tomorrow between 8-12 I am curious to see what time that really means..I am not holding my breath! She did offer for him to come out tonight but connor has a ball game that I do not want to miss and hell we have been without a working fridge since thursday..
I am also curious to see what is wrong with the damn thing, if he tries to extort more $$ out of me or what. I am already resigned to buying a new one next week anyway...

refrigerator woes..

yes the damn fridge is not working again-same problem as before the refrigerator part is not cold so I guess it wasn't the motherboard after all..Here's the fun part the appliance place won't call me back I called friday & a couple of times today with no response. oh sure they guaranteed their work & the part, damn crooks. I really do hate that, I like using a small local business hell most of my jobs since I started working at 16 have been for small local business but we appear to be getting burned this time.
