ally Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 How is the roof Bro? It's done ! Just in the nick o time too. They did a great job and I got a better deal from the guy than he originally quoted Now, it's getting inside the living room wall done. Gotta make sure there's no mold etc. . If my back wasn't an issue I'd do it myself but I've got a few buds who've volunteered with that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ally Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Not pantyhose, the good old RAC Years ago I had to get the wife to donate a couple of times. For some reason, she was never really impressed about it Glad you were able to find other means ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Minxter Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) I was lucky, drove off yesterday and heard this racket coming from the car, wasn't till later I took a look under the bonnet and there were these bits of stuff spitting out, so I got someone to have a look at it and he told me that the fanbelt was ready to go any minute. Managed to drive home, parked the car and called RAC, bloke from RAC told me same thing that I was lucky it didn't go when I was out on the road.

paul carruthers Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 My doctor has been breaking my balls about eating too much, packing on too many pounds & that I might be at risk for diabetes. That made me a little unhappy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Melanie Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 My car's battery is dead so I am waiting for AAA to replace it and my golden, Henry, has an ear infection due to allergies and also has a giant hot spot on his leg due to allergies. So AAA needs to get moving so I can take Henry to his vet appt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Melanie Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 ^^^^^ How's Henry doing?^^^ He's doing much better. Thank you for asking. He is highly allergic to meat(go figure) and I feed him vegetarian dog food. Sometimes he gets into the trash and gets a hold of food that causes him to have ear infections. I have the kitchen set up to where he can't get into anything but he can be a bit sneaky when he wants to. The allergies caused a huge hot spot. Now he is on antibiotics, ear meds, two different kinds of arthritis meds and needs to lose 8 pounds. He is developing arthritis in his back legs which prevents us from going on long walks and he is unable to take long strides so he has lost muscle mass. Because of this, he has gained weight but extra weight is not good for his joints. He is only 9 but being a Golden makes him susceptible to overeating and joint problems. I love him though...I have had since he was 8 weeks old so he is like my third child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I just found out my very good friend who I played with in my first ever band and was best man at my wedding, is in hospital recovering from bowel cancer surgery and begins radiation treatment soon. Unfortunately he is 1000 miles away and I can't be there for him. My prayers and best wishes to him and his family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Learning that my Son could be made Redundant from the British Army... Not being British, I'm not aware what the term "Redundant" means in this capacity. Is this similar to the way we Americans say "discharged"?

Is this similar to the way we Americans say "discharged"? 'Strider' all it means is that the Britsh Army have got to make savings in there running cost. so yes it is the same as being 'Discharged', with a Golden Handshake. Although with the job market being pretty poor the money wouldn't last long. As his wife is also in the Milatary they will keep a roof over their head, and he can become a House Husband...

I am sending good wishes your way and keeping my fingers crossed that your son will remain in the Army. I'm sure he is a great asset and has already given many years of loyal service too. My son is going into the Army here soon and so I think that makes us both Army Moms. Best of luck to you and your son. ........missy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
