Wet and Dry

Cali and CinnamonI feel like the same old record. It's been hot but worse it's humid. The humidity seems to send the dogs inside quickly so my clicks are minimal. Here is today's gallery.

It did rain today but it remained humid. I went outside to take photos and Nathan locked me out so I stood drenched at the door banging on it. He said he locked it as the wind was opening the door but there he sat playing a game and not even notice that I was a wet rag. My battery also was dead so the idea of taking some stunning photos didn't happen. Ever have days like that?

Well, soon Dennis is going to watch the pups and I am going to get draped by dogs and watch tv. 

We also managed to get a hardtop gazebo 12x12 for 399. - yes, a steal but now we have a house full of people who haven't a clue how to do it. Going to be fun. Anyone handy with instructions, tools and want to make some cash and swim? hahahaha

Oh, and Ty was NOT interested in the pool yesterday and Nathan so tried to get him to be. He swims in the lake. What is that about? Losing your touch, Nathan?

Pic 81 - is that Spicy?- very cute.
The dawgies all appear to love Cinnamon. Farley had his last shot today, now weighs 7 lbs even
Yes, I'm also having a day like that ... Central AC broke yesterday and dryer today. My response?- I went and got Hagen Daz!
Positive note, the 3 of us got a swim in between storms (Farley is just as strong a swimmer as Clarity!)

Oh my gad I can do without the dryer for a day or two but not AC. Is it getting fixed today? I need a new dryer. Started looking but oh my gad not cheap.

Cali made a friend! Aww. So happy to see her playing.

Darlah, who is the dog that looks like Levon (image 7493)?

AC will be fixed tomorrow & I have a portable one for bedroom. Just researched dryers as well, and yes, surprised at cost. More upset because dryer not very old and I don't do that much washing.

I know that well. I do many loads a day especially with litters. When ours has gone out we go to the laundrymat. :-( An hour to an hour and a half I can get 6 loads done at once. :-) The dryer I want/need as I have to have size is 1300 plus :-(

If not that old you could get it repaired? Our dryer has been fixed about 6 times and the repair guy says next time - time to get a new one. What brand is yours?

August 14, 2016 | Registered CommenterDarlah

That is socks. He's not my or Paula's breeding. :-) So, not related

Cali is playing with everyone and is very relaxed. After the initial where am I till Nathan did his puppy, puppy, she went ahha and is a play monkey. She is 'very' comfie.

samsung and had good reviews at time. One month after warranty ended, the dryness sensor broke. I spent $200 trying to fix it & gave up as it stilli worked when set it to time mode. Now in time mode it runs for two minutes and stops. Tried changing every setting; same thing. Don't know whether to try fixing this aspect or just buy another. I'll do research on the model to see if others have same issue.
I'm also limited that the width or depth has to be under 26.25".
What about you?

I like Samsung and my repair place is honest to tell me its worth it or not. I use Pro Appliance and have for years and years. Had an LG washer and he said nope - not worth repairing. Appreciate knowing and that LG was 2 months out of warranty. :-(
