And for My TGIF Post...


I'm a dork! I'm laughing way too hard at this... 
Especially @ 00:56 seconds... WTF?

~ NEVER FORGET ~


I was in the house, safe and sound as my then 4 year old daughter, played in the background. I watched in disbelief, the horrific events of that day unfold... Seemingly frozen in time...


I've added a few relevant Posts from fellow bloggers, worth checking out. Please click the links below, and read their words.

Headed To The Library?


That's MY Story...


And I'm sticking to it... ;-)

I had a "Nice Cop" incident the other night...


I got pulled over for speeding... Ooops! Not a surprise considering it was 2am, and me and this cop where the only cars in town... Seriously, I had the run of the place ;-)  But I was a "Good Girl" and cooperated fully. After all, I was speeding. We got to talking, about our kids, and University, and the fact that I was just getting home and wanting to get to bed asap. Come to think of it, he didn't even ask me for my papers. This is a small town, but still, I've met a few power hungry cops who think they're above the law, so it was kinda nice to get pulled over by a "human" cop.  So NO Ticket!! And I had my hands on the wheel, the whole time ;-)

Needing some Plumbing Advice Plz


Here's the situation:

A few days ago, I was alone at my daughter's apartment, dropping off some things for her. Then all of a sudden I hear water pissing in the hall closet where the water heater sits on a shelf. Thank God the shut off valve was right there, then I flicked the heater breakers off and called the landlord. He sent his maintenance guy over to check it out. We had to leave it as is 'till he came back the next morning with the replacement part. The pressure release valve had failed.

Now here's my concern...

The month prior, we only flicked on the breakers to the water heater for a few hours at a time when we came to clean and prep the apartment as no one was living there yet. I never thought to shut off the water line too, as I've never really dealt with this particular situation. Now I want to prevent another "accident" as my daughter and her roommate will be leaving the apartment 'til next Tuesday... 

Is it better to leave everything on? The girls are concerned that it might decide to leak again and damage their stuff and the apartment with no one there to keep an eye on it. I am concerned about that too. Or should they shut off the breaker and the water line, and if they do.... is there a risk this might happen again when it's turned on.... or was it most likely because the water line was left open??

Common sense tells me turn both off.... Anyone out there with some valid experience on this matter?

How Do You Feel About Him?

"We should act like it, and we should stand together..."

"...They can't tell good guys, from bad guys"

"...it doesn't make any sense and
it's profoundly dangerous to our Country"
