Good, bad or Indifferent....


I've come to the realization that I am no where near as "long winded" as I was!  I shit you not!
These days I like to shorten things to a minimum to express myself.
Which can be frustrating as some things need more explaining. That's why I am sitting here now trying to figure out how to use as little words as possible to explain my predicament.
Let's see....................
I set my laptop on the back passenger side floor to go to my son's. Upon retrieving it, I discovered the floor was soaked. huh! Now to try to make a longgggggggggggg story short!
It was one of two things as I was told by a Toyota rep.

Ed drove to a dealer to get the A/C hose flushed. It wasn't THAT! Nor was it the OTHER!
There was a Recall on my car that hadn't been put out there yet.
My car was the first this particular dealership in Punta Gorda had seen. I'm sooo thrilled. NOT!
All the A/C drippings had backed up under the floors on both the rear and front of the passenger side and if I chose to drive away, the airbag could go off at any given moment on the road or fail to in the event of an accident. Everything was soaked,( the water poured out when a mechanic opened up that area) including being on the computer that this car has in that area.
No parts to replace it yet ( will ship from CA when they have them), no idea of when.
So we are stuck in FL until.........................................
The loaner car is .....a loaner car. No frills. No Garmin or the likes. Basic except it does have A/C.
Sucks to have to look things up before hand when I want to go somewhere...like a Bank of America.
Sucks to have to constantly look at each street sign.
Could be worst...you say. ;0)
Thankfully Chris ( Jill's first beau) said we could stay here at his house forever from the moment we got here, cause now..............................we won't be leaving the first week of Dec. sometime.
So my car has been stripped of it's seats and rugs, etc. and waits as we do.

Thanksgiving dinner at my sons tomorrow. :0)
Visani's Comedy Club last night to see Michael Winslow (sound impersonator)  and have dinner last night. :0)
Breakfast this morning at the Family Table with Ed and my son. :0)
Call ....this morning that it will cost $302. 06 to get my snow blower fixed back home. :0(

Ed  and I  Visani's 11-26-13
 
Seen on way to Arcadia before 7a.m.   Love this building in Arcadia. Love the antique stores a plenty too.

 My BUY (Barbie collector's item, circa 1980 I think,  for $15 from a vendor on the street. Why???? It's in RED that's all I can tell you. ;0)


Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Much to my  dismay, I have had trouble locating my pictures for the last few months. Took me ages to find and post these. Will forego the Thanksgiving cartoons, etc. because of it. Getting frustrated !
 I shit you not!

(((hugs)))
That's All Folks!

    Ed looks like he might be gaining a little weight. Taking good care of each other, I think. :)
