HOT WATER RETURNS!

WE HAVE HOT WATER AGAIN!
YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!
WE HAVE HOT WATER AGAIN!
YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!

After shopping around yesterday, we finally found the right part for the hot water heater. Corby replaced it when he got home from work, and TADA - we had hot water! Since there has been a class action lawsuit filed against the maker of our water heater, we will be reimbursed for up to 2 thermocouples. We are going to go buy one more (at Star) and keep it on hand in case it goes out again. We've heard stories that people have already replaced this piece 2 or 3 times. It is only a $17 part, but if you don't have a handyman (like our neighbor Paul) to show you how to install it, it can cost $150 for a service call and replacement of the part. THANKS PAUL! Now Corby knows how to do it himself!

Please

I know there are folks out there who read my blog, at least once in a while. Would you please do me a favor? Would you make a comment every now and then? It's easy...just click on comment, and if you don't have any of the accounts set up that are listed, you can post as "anonymous". Just identify yourself in the comment. I'd like to know how many people out there are actually reading my blog, albeit occasionally. THANKS!

What's Good

Here's what's good right now: 1. Corby's OKAY after an accident at work today! He was on the forklift pulling onto a truck when the truck driver pulled away from the dock apparently to reallign himself (WHAT AN IDIOT DRIVER!!!) and he fell off the dock. Thank goodness there is a roll-bar on those forklifts. He has a headache and will probably be stiff tomorrow, but says he is okay. They sent him for a drug test. It's their policy if someone has an accident at work. 2. Feeling much better. I'm about 75% well now. Still have a cough and some sinus issues, but I think I'll survive. 3. Spending today with Kaleb & Kaitlin. 4. Having such good kids. Leeker's just called Kaitlin to see if she'd work longer hours today. They have a lot of employees out sick. She was supposed to work 4-8, but volunteered to work 2-9. Here's a pat on the back hon! 5. Enjoying some Josh Groban music. 6. Cleaning out my file cabinet and getting ready for 2008. I know, I...
