Thursday night

Well, fix-a-leak didn't work; this time the freon only lasted 10 days.  So, Sat., I'm getting my new chase line.  The man says that he's done many of these before and he doesn't mind working in the rain (tropical downpours).  He can re-capture most of the 2 lbs. of freon he put in today and re-use it so I won't have to pay for it again and he can recycle the copper that he takes out and re-coup some of his costs.  He can also remove and re-install my water heater at half the cost of the plumber.  Still, it'll be around $1000 when it's done providing nothing goes wrong.

I went onto the Pinellas County Court website and, yes, a judgement has been filed against me by Suncoast Schools credit union but I haven't received official notification yet.  I've called my lawyer twice this week but she isn't returning my phone calls, probably because of the letter she received from the Florida Bar Association.  You'd think that she'd do all in her power to help me so I didn't file a formal complaint against her, wouldn't you?  A complaint goes against her license.  Duh!

The lady next door with whom I've been having lunch for the last several weeks was taken to the hospital last night.  She's the one who doesn't speak English and I don't speak Spanish and we are good friends.  She has a tumor on her uterus and they aren't going to do anything because of her age, 91.  So I guess she'll slowly bleed to death.  Her daughter expects her to come home tomorrow.

DonnaH~~Congratulations on all the awards for your grandkids.  You are most definitely proud!

Mary~~Sorry that you have gout.  I didn't think you could get it in the ankle either but I know it's painful.

Sandi~~I love the story of buying the books!  Now that's my kind of purchase and it's for the kids too!

Amanda and Mary~~Did either of you watch the Phillies game on Tuesday night?  The man who sang the national anthem was Paul Byrom, formerly of Celtic Thunder and he can really sing it correctly!  He sings it a lot at the Celtics home game and was asked to sing it Tuesday because it was Irish night at the Phillies.  He dedicated it to Ryan Kelly, who is still hospitalized in Ireland but who is now on the road to recovery, slowly.  Paul is a class act.

Sorry it's so hot up North!  When it's hot there, it's worse than when it's hot here, I swear, and it's hot here now.

Well, got to go and eat now.  Talk to you later.  Celtic Thunder will be in Atlantic City at Harrah's the last week of June and the first week of July in case I can convert any of you; they say the music will be a fun Irish summer!
