In seven days, we've had Wi Fi issues Wi Fi,
the Wi Fi crash totally and the new router extenders.
The element on the oven caught fire.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
What were you cooking? What?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
It was just warming it up? And I'm sitting at
the counter and I'm like, whoa, there are sparks and
flames in our ovens, So jumped up. Turn that off.
And a little crack in the ceramic element. And then
we have the on going battle with the refrigerator. Before
Garl we got to the source of that problem. So anyway,
(02:06):
how's your life?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Which was the mouse stuck in the fame?
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Wasn't the mouse? And it was a couple of things wrong.
The refrigerate is every bit of year and a half old. Wow, yeah, covered,
thank goodness. But heater was bad, the frost heater the
and then ice was building up and it just goes
on and on because sideways wasn't in a proper position anyway.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
So you tore it all apart and fixed it.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Nope, nope, I knew what it was, but I'm not
tearing apply.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
So he called the brothers and they came out and.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Tore the part. They had ge service under warning, so
they took care of it. It's taken three calls to
take care of it, but they've taken care of it,
or they will take care of it. He goes like,
I gotta get a bunch of parts. I'll be here
all after afternoon. So Thursday we'll see if we can
get it put back together again.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
So you had to eat out.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
We've eaten out and we're living out of a little
bar refrigerator. Oh good, So everything went down to my
son's house and we just buy what we need for
the day.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
So now he hopes that your refrigerator goes out all
the time.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
No, I hate it.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
No, he hopes that it.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Oh he yeah, you think i'll get ay that food back?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
No, it's gone already.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
I think I think it's probably gone.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Was there any beer involved?
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Well, beer can be warm, you don't drink it.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
But okay, right, well, I've just meant if you took
it down there, you know that's gone.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Oh well, I'm a little smarter than that.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Oh okay, all right, Well I didn't know.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I mean, give me a little credit.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
I didn't know. So you know, in all sincerity, in
that kitchen, if if I have a fire extinguisher. Is
there a better one to have for the kitchen or
are they all the same?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Well? They are, but you know, in and oven, it's
pretty self contained. I'm sure I could have got out
of hand. I just got up literally and just turned
the oven off. But that's the first thing Sue said too.
I said, do you know where that fire extinguisher? Shees, yeah, yeah,
it's in the lunder room. Okay, just checking with you.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Did you know where it was?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Oh? Yeah, sure, okay, and probably one of the best
ones out there right now. It's a first I think
it's First Alert or Kitty either one. They probably both
make them by now. And it's like an aerosol fire extinguisher,
which is maybe thirty ounce can and it actually has
as much propellant and as a decent size pulled a
(04:36):
pin fire extinguishers. It's an ABC fire extinguisher and probably
out to have it underneath the cabinet in the kitchen,
we do not. We have it in the laundering rooms
right on the other side, and that's where it's at.
But yeah, I knew where it was. I was ready.
I was ready. I was just sitting there going like,
did I just see a flash.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
For some reason out.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Of the corner. Did I just see it? Oh? Yeah
I did?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Yes, what reason? In my mind? I see you with
that fire extinguisher, as though you would have the power
washer in your hands.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, everything one of the things too. And they leave
a residue, so you know, you don't want to get
too crazy with it. But if you got a fire,
the residue is better than the alternative, right, yes, yes,
but you also got to know where your limitations are too.
I'm sure any fireman would tell you. That firefighter would
(05:27):
tell you that no, when to stop, no when to call,
but base of the fire sweeping motion. And yeah I wasn't.
I thought it was pretty contained, never really got bad.
But did scare me?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Well, I guess so. Yeah, anytime you have a fire
inside the house when it's not scary, that's not good.
This fire supposed to be here.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Yeah, well, we do have a couple of wasp that
have been showing up. No, so good. There's a wasp
in here somewhere, or there's a nest in here somewhere.
I go, Well, it's gonna go down to like twenty tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah, I think they'll too much longer of.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Course they're if they're in the attic, maybe they go
a little longer.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I'll keep you fully informed. Well on the edge.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I actually I'm sitting on the edge of the seats
as we speak. I'm just curious, you know, because I
know we we probably have one fire extinguisher in our house.
You probably should have them in the laundry room and
the kitchen.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
And I got one down the shop in the basement.
I got one in the garage.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You have a workshop in the basement, Yeah, you do,
I do? What do you do?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Nothing?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Okay, I store my tools, all right.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That's why I kept thinking, well, workshop, look at them.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
I just go.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I just go down and grunt.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Sometimes I cut some wood to get the smell.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Oh I like that. I really do like that.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Oh man, it's the best, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah. Sometimes you just go cut up a couple of
shelf boards just for.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Giggles, Yeah, just to smell that frectually cut wood.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Then you walk up the steps going.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
With a little bit of it on your shoes.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Oh yeah pants. Well then I get yelled at.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Well, yeah, Gary's just slid that supposed to be.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Here, Garry, what is this stuff? Why are you so messy?
Do you ever get that? No? Don't you know? I
have a problem when I make coffee every morning. I
don't get all the green grounds of coffee in the
little cup, the little bucket, you know. And there's a
couple of coffee grounds on the floor. See, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
It's just the opposite of our house.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Oh yeah, you tell.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Her, probably a little bit more, a little bit neater.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah. I denied it for a while, and then I
started realizing that when I was putting the grounds in
the coffee, you know filter, maybe some would get on
the edge of the coffee maker, and I may have
just off with my hand. I may have may have
Just then she had to ask me, did you just
(08:00):
think they were going to disappear?
Speaker 1 (08:01):
No, no, you think.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
They did disappear from my coffee maker.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Well, they're not on the counter, that's right. Yeah, I'm improving.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Yeah, I'm gonna plead the I'm gonna plead that case today.
I'm sure. I'm sure do me a lot of good.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
You say, I'm in home improvement and I'm improving.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I'm trying. Of course, everything keeps breaking and I get
a you know, either fix it like all the whole
Wi Fi thing or I don't do appliances though, but
I have done a couple of toilets and drain and
Wi Fi in the last two weeks. We're in one
of those periods you you know about those what where
(08:43):
things just kind of slide. Oh, yeah, you know things.
You know, we got a roll going on. I think
there's a prize at the end of it, you think, so,
I don't know, Maybe I need one of those little vacuums.
Maybe that would be a surprise. Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Those are pretty nice too, right, M just curious. Were
are just a few weeks out from the that major
purchase will be cut or artificial this year.

it's going to go up early this year because we
have a couple early events at the house, so we
haven't really discussed it. I don't know how's the Christmas
tree market this year.
