Our 17-year-old dishwasher had to be replaced.
it sounds like seeing Selene chewing on cords is just too much for your Charlie, and maybe he remembers what he liked about chewing cords.Charlie was a cord chewer as a kitten, and he finally stopped before Selene came. Now she's getting him into the habit again
you replaced the windshield wipers on your car!!! most excellent!!I have most recently replaced the windshield wipers on my car. I always make sure to get a high-quality pair as they make all the difference in seeing the road correctly during rainstorms. The ones I replaced are working out very well and I am glad to have this taken care of.
you had a couple of window screens replaced!!! very nice!!I had a couple of window screens re-made. The wind ripped them right off the windows and broke the frame some time ago and I finally got around to having Ace make new ones.
you replaced your microwave!!! great!!Microwave, it had lasted at least 15 years so it was past due. It had tripped the breaker a few times when I turned it on but of course I waited until it gave out completely. It gave out on a weekday morning when I was getting ready for work. I have become so dependent on a microwave that I ordered another one on Amazon that morning before I went to work.
you had to replace your computer!!! really awesome!!My computer bit the dust a few weeks ago and had to get a new one. Took a bit to get used to it but it is so much faster than my old antique.
you replaced your vehicle brakes!!! really awesome!!Vehicle brakes!! They were really shot, squeaking and squealing in protest whenever the slightest bit of pressure was applied. It was annoying and made me really, really uncomfortable driving it, so I didn't until they were repaired and now I'm shocked at how responsive they are.
i'm glad you got your computer issue fixed! i'd wonder the same things, and i'd miss the computer guy too.Before the brakes...weird story...
My personal laptop had the power cord plug stop working. I couldn't charge it up, so I packed it up and drove it to the computer person I've used for years. I get there, get out of the car, walk to the door, reach for the handle, and notice there's a sign on the door welcoming me into some dog grooming place.
The guy said he was going to sell years ago but had given me his number and address as he wanted to work from home. I got in my car, got in my phone, and called his business, disconnected. I called his home, disconnected. I did not have a cell number but thought I'd drive to his house about 30 minutes away and see if he was still available to do this computer repair thing.
Drive up there. Find the right address (it's rural, but there are a few houses grouped into the same general area.) Find the correct driveway. The house has some boards over the windows and looks like it's being remodeled. There had been snow on the ground for weeks but no tracks were around the place, I go to the door anyway, knock. No answer. I peer inside. No one is there and it looks deserted. Go around to the side door, try again, nothing.
Go back in the car, sit there like a dork. I google his business name and find his website, click on it, it redirects me to a company I've never heard of so I go there. The people there were very nice and very good and I was very happy, but part of me silently wonders if my computer person decided they'd rather manage than do the actual work anymore and decided to move and do the behind the scenes thing.
I'm a chicken sh!t and as a new customer did not mention this guy, but next time there I probably will ask if they know of him and to tell them I said hi (he'll know me, I've been a long time customer!)
Plus, this guy was always great as he was a cat person and talked about his cats a lot. I told him many stories of ours, especially our crazed little one and how she managed to head butt a glass of water onto a brand new system, frying it completely x.x
you replaced your previous iPhone with the iPhone X, as well as bought a new cord!!! excellent!!I just replaced my iPhone 7 Plus with the iPhone X ... and also got a new cord lol
Just means more quality photos of my little purrbabies
you replaced your couch cover with a lovely teal-blue one that has faint seashells on it, as well as a carton of milk!!! really great!!I've replaced my couch cover. the old one was getting ratty and I saw this teal-blue one with faint seashells on it and thought it's perfect for my livingroom (I have nautical teal blue theme livingroom with my reef tank).
and a carton of milk.
your cordless drill needed replacing!!! really very nice!!The batteries on my cordless drill would not hold a charge any more. And replacement batteries were $$$. I've got a nice air compressor, so I thought I would try the $20 pneumatic drill being offered at Lidl's. It's a very simple tool and works great! I may still need a cordless drill someday, but for now this thing will do just fine.
you replaced your Droid Turbo, with a Samsung Galaxy S9+ (in purple)!!! awesome!!Last Thursday I replaced my beloved Droid Turbo (in red) with the Samsung Galaxy S9+(in purple). It was a toss-up between the S9+ and the iPhone X, and I was torn because Rick has the iPhone X. I decided on the S9+ and I really like it. I’m still the only one in the family who doesn’t have an iPhone.
your tv remote (for your cable provider) needed replacing!!! really great!!Our tv remote for our cable provider was on the fritz and wouldn't work. I tried changing the batteries twice but no luck so brought it to the nearest store and they replaced it with a newer model.
ahhh, very nice!!I took out the trash this afternoon, so I replaced that. I did also put a new cartridge in the pheromone diffuser on Friday.
your Nissan pickup truck's brakes were replaced!!! most excellent!!Front brakes on our Nissan pickup truck.
you replaced your teeny wee pair of scissors!!! really awesome!!My teeny wee pair of sharp scissors that I 'lost' in my bedroom last week when I was poorly and not putting things back in their places, very unusually. (I have magnets all around me where things live.) I hunted high and low but on not finding them decided to get another pair from Amazon the next day, as I need multiple pairs of scissors because I'm constantly compelled to make things with paper and sticky back plastic etc. The day after, I changed my bedding and they fell out of inside my duvet cover! What I was doing in my poorly delirium heaven only knows.
you replaced your dishwasher!!! excellent!!Our 17-year-old dishwasher had to be replaced.
your Pur water pitcher was replaced!!! really awesome!!My Pur water pitcher. DD moved out over the weekend and I gave her the big one I had with some extra filters. I got a smaller one for myself.
