Default Levels 2, 3, and 4 of hell have arrived.
WHAT the ACTUAL F%$#

I drove to the trade show in a storm, hot stupid weather for two days, and a massive storm on my way back. I'm only going between 25 and 30 on a 6 lane highway.

I turn the corner to my street...half of my huge pear tree is broken off and laying from the trunk to the curb. It's probably a 35 foot tree that is 25 feet across and half is gone.

Go inside to find out the AC for the upstairs blew a capacitor outside.

I tried to get on line to order one, no internet...or cable.



For the curious, THIS is me...

The kindness found here can't be measured.




No really...it can't. There isn't enough to even measure.

Thank you. It's ok.

Cable came back
Internet came back
Guy is coming tomorrow to haul away the half tree.
New capacitor will be here tomorrow and a spare one on Friday.

I don't "wallow" in self pity, but I'm not above dipping a toe in now and then.

I'm hoping some rich lady will take me in and pamper me like a rescue dog.

Strats doesn't really exist, he's just a pigment of your imagination!
