Well the dishwasher decided to let us push every button but the one that starts it, My mortgage company decided to finally tell me the truth about the bailout program(3 months of looking up my but with a flashlight for reduced interest and 100 less in payments)  we got it in underwriting adding 10 YEARS to your mortgage (first disclosure I have had) lot to say here but I will spare you,   THIRD THING TODAY........

daughter took the old suburban to work, she got pulled out of work after an hour to tell her there is a problem, BURB is on fire and police will not let anyone get near it much less put it out, smoke is light at this point .....someone could handle it with fire extinguisher, a 20 minute wait for the fire department PER COP!!!!    Well 1/2 of $600 in new tires, one damm good 350 and tranny...and whatever the leather interior was worth went up in smoke.     I do not know what the fire dept fees will be but I rekon in that neighborhood about 1k.   I had 4 great years of service out of that burb, with nothing more then oil changes, 1 rear end rebuild, and a heater core......not bad for a 1990 with 250k on the clock.     I did not lose money really ........just a sad day putting a sweet reliable vehicle to rest.






oh well done with my *****en.....life goes on don't it!

Sanded and finished that wood trim myself dang it!!!!

That really sucks, you get it from every direction all at once.  The fire department charges you to put fires out?

That sucks seems like it always happens in three's. Going through some of the same, unexpected home repairs and now need to have sewer line dug up just as we deside to put the place up for rent, so waitin on the third. Hang in there man and we will overcome.

best to ya

Doesn't look like the fire department earned any fees.
