I want to complain
Friday the water line to my house sprung a leak .... I need a new water line ..... $$$$$$$$$
Today as I was going to work my F-150 broke the carrier bearing and i have to buy a brand
new drive shaft to fix the problem.
It is spring and I can not work for 2 to 3 days .... I landscape.
And then a grizzly bear tried to maul me but I told him this is not the day to fuck with me.

2. You want to complain? Look at these shoes, I've only had them 3 weeks
and the heels are worn right through! If you complain no one does anything about it...

4. Can I add my complaint? Bought a huge bag of grass seed.
Never switch from something you know works.

My bag was 20 pounds of seed. 3 separate seedings, I kept hoping. Nothing in the bag but dead stuff. Bird seed, if even goods for that. Not se much as a blade of new grass.

Bought Scott's, back now to new grass.

If it seems too good to be true.........I will buy lots of generics but not grass seed again.

E-mailed to company about their defective product. Of course, no reply.

7. go for the fescue seed blends ..... tall and creeping red
Edited on Mon May-17-10 05:10 PM by Botany
no mow blends in low traffic areas are the way to go.

Set your mower @ 3.5 to 4" too ..... let your lawn go dormant in summer
too. Any ?s P.M. me


stay away from bluegrass.

17. You sent me right to check the bag. Can't read part of the label,
What I can read is tall and small Fesque blend. There is no other seed listed.

Relief!!, Thanks.

12. hmm...
Edited on Mon May-17-10 05:51 PM by nickinSTL
I just spent $450 on repairing a 22 year old Toyota I suspect won't last another 2 years - and I know there's at least another $250 or so coming to replace an axle.

My furnace blew up (the controls caught fire and fried) last week - and I also have to replace some pipes to make it safe again...

My water heater isn't venting properly - I'll have to replace pipes there, too.

all $$$$$$$$

In addition, my hours (and along with that my pay) are being cut as of July 1.

And because of the disastrous Illinois state budget (my employer is state-funded), about half of the staff where I work will be out of a job as of June 30. I'm one of the lucky ones - only barely getting by because my boss is staying and thinks enough of me to keep me on.

grrrrr.

- and on the subject of the Illinois budget - this is a good article on the mess:

edited to add: Oh, and I forgot to mention that my dad was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma last week (not a major deal, as bcc is usually very treatable), and one of my brothers-in-law was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (likely a much bigger deal, though how much is still in question)
