Mac, your car's AC bug infected my car. I'd appreciate it if you'd keep the AC "virus" to yourself!
It was blowing just fine, but only cools when I'm driving down the highway. Figure it's just the freon... well when I got back into town in GA it started working just fine... moving or not.
Who the heck knows. Couple weeks ago I thought it was the fan motor as it was blowing cold air but barely blowing. They changed my air filters and it seemed to be fine since then. Figured maybe it was so gross it choked out the system and it couldn't get any air. Then a month and a half later it starts acting weird again.

Been watching the Olympics! Every minute of prime time at least. About to start tonights on DVR.

Hope everyone is doing well!
Been traveling to and from the beach, dance started back today, and lots of other random things.
Think I have to cancel my one nighter at Universal in September. We have no good way of getting my sister's dog to my mom..... Really bummed out and trying to think of a way. Problem is my sister won't let anyone watch the dog except my youngest older brother and mom. meh.....

 

[macraven]

Take the dog with you
Aren't you staying at UO for your birthday trip?
Loews is pet friendly

About that ac......
I got mine checked again from the first charge

For $147.89 they told me the car was over filled with freon

They took out all the freon and cleaned it/recycled it and only put half of it back in

Works fine now in our 99 degree heat
Youser..... It was humidity level
Of 75 today and the ac worked great in the car

Watched the swim meets of the olympics tonight

Go USA

Morning sun shines! Lapping up the Olympic coverage. Anybody see that Danish woman cyclist wipe out yesterday? OMG! How is she alive?

I saw that. I thought she was dead at first. Devastating wreck down hill. I saw that she is in ICU with three broken vertebrae In her back.

Gives pause to remember some of these sports are quite dangerous.

The men competing the day before had a bunch of wrecks with injurys also coming down hill. They said the course was fraught with numerous poorly constructed turn grades on the down hill section of the race, as well as poor road conditions.

Wahoo, soccer champion DD today. Commanding first place win. So happy for the team. While the teams that became this team still have some meshing issues, they are getting more and more trusting with each other.

Congratulations to your daughter Lynne on the victory. I know you are proud of her.

 

[pcstang]

Everyone seems to be having car issues of one sort another, My wife's van included. Sounds like everyone is getting the issues sorted.
@macraven Another reason to fly:wrecks on 75 near Ocala and then Gainesville. We,and another family following us home, went ahead and exited in Gainesville to let the kids do their thing and eat. As we tried to get back 75 the ramp was shut down because of another wreck. Had to go through Gainesville and head north to rejoin 75. Gainesville always seems to have wrecks on 75 lately. Anyway, a 6 hour trip turned into 11....

Your trip home about doubled the time

Did not know that 75 was that bad near Gainesville
Have a relative that lives there and was not given the heads up on it


Glad younger safe and home now

Fell asleep on the couch while watching the 12 inning Braves game...at least they won and I'm in just in time to wish Janet a Hope you have a wonderful day and get everything that you wish for

Time for me to go back to sleep
Good night everyone.

 

[schumigirl]

to our gorgeous gal Janet, have a great day........eat, drink and be merry.........

Sounds beautiful! Off with their heads! Queen of hearts I am, it's red or nothing for me lol. Dumb deer are Houdini like here...able to jump over 5-1/2 ft fence with ease. My rose bushes have been designated browse the last few years.Quite fond of my burning bush too.

Did my time at body shop. $1,000. Didn't schedule yet as they are already into mid October. Glad my deductible is low and insurance won't count the vandalism against me. At least they didn't put anything into my tank ala water or sugar. The fuel tank was proclaimed 'fine' by both my mechanic and the one @ body shop.

Trying to take the high road here, how am I doing so far. You know there is something terribly wrong with you when your first thought is - crap, that's less $ for my October trip.

Red and white roses are a tie for me.......yep, awful we feel glad thievers didn't do more damage than they do!!! High Road is a good one.......take it often.......

That road was just awful..........horrible to watch the men the other day.......but that poor girl, yep, thought she wasn't coming back from that one......

Have a good Tuesday.........

 

[Lynne G]

Keisha! Hope you get a much better birthday present than the car repair bill! High road indeed. Enjoy your birthday.

It's a foggy start and not so humid. Though more humid than yesterday. The sun is no where to be found, but with a high of 90 still to come, it should make an appearance soon, and chase all that fog outta here. And Mac, we'll be in the 70's percent humidity by Saturday. We've had 2 days of low humidity, and people are wearing long pants. I'm like what??? It's not that cold out. Fall will be here soon enough. In the 50's count down now.

Woke up so early, not sure why. Will make the day long.

Pcstang, safe travels. TinyD, safe travels too.

DSis returned from her beach long week-end. Brought us caramel corn. Yum. There's a store on the boardwalk, that we all only buy that corn at. They sell it warm, as just made to order. Funny, she had her car's AC repaired, and it's still not working right. I don't want the AC virus either.

That is great King won the gold medal. She's a bright star on the women's swim team, and deservedly so. Didn't know she was a local girl to you Robo.

Have a great morning all! And a great afternoon to our homies across the pond!

Thanks for the Anniversary wishes-we ended up working on some of our business stuff-roped kids into it too (DS was at friends for sleepover) so we took them out to eat with us. I didn't want anything fancy as it seems we've eaten out a lot lately.
Happy Birthday to Keisha!!

Love all the minion (and other ) memes!

HOT HOT HOT here again. Real feel of 105 today?? At least we've had rain to go along with it. Poor chickens come panting to deck door-I set up a fan for them sometimes

Friend invited us to his suite at ballgame tonite-Springfield Cardinals. Gotta get through work first so I guess I'd better get going...

Safe travels to all those on the road-and hope the AC fairy sprinkles freon to keep the cold air blowing!

 

[keishashadow]

Thank you all! Low key day planned today as DH worked double starting @ 4 yesterday & back out again today - yuck. Guess I'll be grilling my own steak lol. GD picked me out another huge VeraB duffle to add to the collection - sweet. Need to do some more school clothes shopping for her today and stop @ Starbucks for that free goodie.

Any other Blues Traveler's fans? They were scheduled for F&W, booked the dining pkg. Turns out lead singer, John Popper, having emergency back surgery. Stated a few vertebrae involved but of very serious nature. Touring schedule only cancelled thru 8/23, seems rather ambitious. Wonder if they will keep the 2 Epcot dates hmmm. Worst case I'm sure Disney would put in a pinch hitter, just know they'll drag it out.

Not happy that @ their BW property a new refurb announced to include painting of exterior and balcony work in October. Called but naturally they have no idea as to the scope of the involvement (balcony usage being restricted). Didn't even get 55 days advance notice. All the other DVC properties are sold out. Ridiculously inconsiderate, they have this stuff planned months in advance. Looking for that high road lol.

Any other Bank of America customers here? Was going to take it as a backup one to WDW this weekend. Thinking I should just leave it sit at home at this point. Got this email today, wondering if a random or part of bigger issue:

We're letting you know your card may have been part of a compromise at an undisclosed merchant. This doesn't mean that fraud has or will occur on your account and as always, you are not liable for fraudulent transactions when reported promptly. However, as a precaution, we're issuing you a new card which will arrive soon.

[macraven]

Again, happy birthday Janet

Have a fantastic day!


Those type of notices happen frequently
Any kind of issue or close issue when it comes to cc, that notice goes out

Had it happen twice year before last with discover

It doesn't mean much at all but maybe there was a compromise so all card holders in certain areas get that email and new cards
Chicagoland has that cc stuff happen quite a bit

Just take a look at your statements online and see if anything looks out of order or suspicious

I've been thru those notices about six times now
Have not had them since we moved

The problem is what are we going to do with the dog the next day when we go to our disney condo which is not pet friendly? We're only doing Universal or one night. We're doing disney for 5.

Also.... our dog would not do very well in a hotel. She'd bark at every noise she heard thinking it was us coming back and "ignoring" her. That's not fair to other guests or her... and then there's the whole I'm allergic to most dogs so a pet friendly room would probably be a very bad idea. haha oh well. I'll be going for sure in November and maybe October too so I shouldn't be too bummed. Just ready to get back.

So the first one over charged your ac and then the next one had to un-charge a bit. HA.. wow.
Haven't been in my car today to see what kind of mood she's in today. Maybe she's just getting old and having hot flashes.

Happy Birthday Keisha sending you a beefy birthday cake LOL
