LOL Toggle... Yes, dating myself works out very well. I know where I want to go out to eat and when I'm in the mood, and for what...all without having to ask or trying to guess. YES. I'll date me. =)

They left with your gloves!? That's just awful. No good deed goes unpunished, as they say!

At least it's only rain.... Here in DC we have had more snow this year than like the last 10 combined, I imagine. I just took this shot outside my house. This is very unusual for us. So...FWIW, I'd rather be in your shoes. =)

Vern: I'm so sorry for your loss. That is terrible. No doubt at all that Matthew was an awesome guy. FWIW, I'm sure he's still smiling.

Sandy: Don't be sorry. I'm happy to have gotten the answers I was looking for, and I appreciate your time,knowledge, and willingness to help! Now let me tell you a little secret about myself... *in a stage whisper* If there is a way to do something that makes it MORE difficult, THAT is the way...

Sunny and 50... Unfortunately we're going to be way below average for the next several days. I better pry myself away from the computer and see what I can do. I've ordered the roof rake from walmart.com. Obviously it won't help me this time, but in 10 years when it happens again.....=)...

Very nice. Splendid finds indeed. I once saw a similar dishwasher without the buttons. I believe all it has was the knob, and it was harvest gold. Bit noisy but I thought that was part of its charm. =) Can I just say I LOVE the Tag in coppertone!

I love it.... And the reset button.....resets the selector buttons?

Sandy: I totally appreciate the answers. I will try to do something. I wish the house was from the 60's after what you said about the strength of structures built twenty years later, because it was. =) Incidentally I just heard what sounded like an avalanche nearby. Maybe I'm off the hook! =)...

Sandy.... 1980's vintage, many gabled type roof. A roof rake. I like that. probably kill myself trying to do the job though. LOL

Tried to get a good angle... But you still cant really see how much is actually up there. I'd guess there will be a lot more by the time it's all over. This is why I wondered.

This thread gives me an opening to ask this.... I've lived in my current home Brick/wood frame cookie cutter, ranch, subdivision grade house long enough to know that it can withstand a decent hurricane without damage. (though I admit I found myself scared to death, hiding in the basement and...

Well....... ^^^^ is single, and doesn't have to go to the trouble this year. Look long enough and you can find some good in any situation! =)

How awesome.... Lucky..... I love when things like this happen. Don't mow down any Herb tomorrow. Peaches might get pissed. =P

Nate!!!! Happy birthday, friend!! PS-You'll be proud to know that my DM dishwasher is still happily chugging along thanks to you!! The motor hums such a pretty tune! =)
