So what is Tuesday going to bring? Well, first of all, the weather outside is in the mid 50s, but it's also drizzly. In about 2 hours I'm going top be sitting at Faulkner Subaru waiting for my car to be inspected. My total cost will be $136, plus applicable taxes, because I live in one of a handful of counties in PA that requires an emission inspection as well. I'm estimating that should run about an hour and 15 minutes.
After that, I'm heading down to that Fish Place / Pet Place, as it's now known. I'm thinking of getting two pelecsos, one for each tank to help with the algae growth. I also like to buy my fish food in bulk.
Early yesterday evening, I emailed the deposits for the electrical work. I'm hoping they'll get to it next week. Unlike the plumbing, it should only take a few hours. Our big appliance sale starts on November 3. I'll wait a bit. It runs up until the after Black Friday. If you need to buy an appliance, that will be the time since the sales are national. I was told I could get both the washer and dryer in apple red, or forest green, as well as the charcoal, black, and in white. I'll go with the white, especially since they are now going to be stacked. The new laundry room was a walk in closet. Dark walls make a room look smaller, so will dark appliances.
I bought a cuckoo clock, imported from Germany.
I still vote in person, though I do the early voting.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have early voting in PA. That chart shows early voting figures, too.
DeleteI plan on dropping my ballot off this weekend. I am a bit slow on this.
ReplyDeleteI mailed mine, and then I checked to make sure it had been received.
DeleteOh, the mid terms (and the election) are gonna be hell. What with voter suppression, misinformation and plain fuckery from the Repugs. That without mentioning people's complacency.
ReplyDeleteI am going to follow that link you gave, even if it'll give me anxiety.
As for the laundry room, cool! I'd like the white appliances too. But I'd try a bold accent wall. Who knows, maybe in one of you fav darker colors?
XOXO
Looking at that link, I'm not seeing the usual complacency.
DeleteVoting in person this week during early voting. Straight D!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Thank you! Thank you! Every vote counts!
DeleteSunak - don't get me started. His wife is even more wealthy than him and last I checked she was fiscally resident in India in order to avoid paying taxes in the UK!!!
ReplyDeleteHis wife's taxes have popped up in a number of newsfeeds that I get, usually in the first paragraph. I do believe the Tories are destined for another failure. Good for them.
DeleteI voted yesterday, early voting.
ReplyDeleteThe clock brought back a memory I did not know I had. When I was a little kid (very little, about 5 or so) my Grandmother had a clock that looks a lot like that. I would sit for hours and watch for the hours go strike. Then I had a great pleasure. It had weights that you pulled to wind it and my Grandmother would hold me up to the clock and let me pull the weights when it was time. Good memories!
Actually, it was the memory of a cuckoo clock my grandmother owned which planted the seed for this purchase.
DeleteI love voting by mail. Generally I get an email to be on the lookout for the ballot and then once I filled out and returned I generally get another email saying they received it. I think that's great
ReplyDeleteI didn't get a 'received' email this year, so I checked to make sure. They had it the next day.
