It's a big political issue. Not to worry though - Sacramento is scheduled to have them by 2025! (Seriously).

Not too expensive to fix, but it was a complete bonehead moment. While working in my attic I accidentally stepped through the ceiling into our sons nursery.

I know that we told you that it was due to the Swine flu outbreak....... but in actuality there was this smell that none of us could figure it out. Thanks for the heads up. Or should I say nose up? Love you sweetheart. Well dear, now that you brought it up… remember when you came over last weekend and all of us were wearing those masks…..

I can't remember a big disaster but recently I came very close. I walked into my apartment and a maintenance man had been working on the stove and had left the gas on. He was downstairs having lunch while my apartment filled with gas. I walked in and almost lit a candle before realizing the situation. It could have been BAD! Wow, that is quite the disaster!

Maybe the bill won't be THAT bad. Okay, my biggest home accident was when I drove into our septic tank. Yes, INTO our septic tank. Turns out concrete isn't so strong after 40 years or so. Thankfully my kids and I were able to get out of the car because the bumper kept the whole thing from going in. Beat that! Oh no! Maybe the bill won’t be THAT bad.

When I was a home owner/landlord, three separate (large) appliances died in a three-month period. Oh, and I was earning a whopping $1200 per month. I finally got the dryer, range and a second range (there was a mother-in-law apartment) replaced. Then there was a fire that evacuated the house for a month. I just shrugged and said, "Well, sure... We were running out of appliances to break." PS. When I need to keep an eye on my shower time, I like to play music. That way I know that, after one song, I've been in there at least three minutes. It's a pleasant way to time yourself, I find. Well, I haven’t had a home accident that I can remember.
