I'm sorry for your and your family's loss, Tep.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I've reverted to stress-housework. So far I've: baked a quiche, done laundry and hung it outside to dry, washed a double-sinkfull of dishes, and changed the bedsheets.
Next up: gym. And possibly baking zucchini bread.

“Not dead yet!”
I've reverted to stress-housework.
My sister! Emptied and refilled dishwasher. Done loads of sheets, towels and now the duvet cover. Remade the bed with fresh sheets. Swept up the furballs, although they've already proliferated.

So sorry to hear that, Steph.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I wish my stress was so efficient.
I was just thinking the same thing.

my new dishwasher has more rack space. Sucker is STILL not full. I don't want to run a half empty machine, but dang it, I'm running out of plates!
ION, I woke up to find, what looks to be, a new A/C unit for my apartment. Not sure why. I didn't complain of bad A/C. Most curious. Need to call the front office.

not your mom's socks.
Hive Mind help needed: paging Sparky or any other gmail enabled lawyer type. We sold a hottub on craigslist - huge 6 person tub, $400. we've been getting daily updates from the (young) buyer about how expensive the hookup was, how he didn't expect to have to redo his outdoor electrical (new law here), and then how some fuses had blown and he had to pay for repairs. When he'd picked it up it was working, but he opted not to see the full fill-heat-up-empty process.
He's been going back and forth with DH, who is frustrated and angry at being accused of selling something busted.
he just initiated a payment rollback on paypal for $250. I want to say fine - go away. But i want him to really go the frack away.
Can we say we will give you this money back if you agree in writing to the following:
"we will agree to this if you write a statement that in no way holds us further responsible and acknowledges that this is a courtesy return only. That the parties do not agree where the damage occurred and as such this courtesy remit is solely for the purpose of severing the contact.
any further contact to us, our family, or any defamation of character in print, on line, or via voice will be met with a legal action on our parts."
that may be a mite strong. help.
