Just will get a new one for about the same price Happened with our fridge last year like that. It was a leak in the condenser line for the freezer that had gone bad before under warranty. Went bad again and out of warranty. Cost to fix over 1k. Ah no got a new fridge for just a bit more than the repair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody see Alberto turn on that 96 mph high fastball and pull it just foul. Reminded me of Paul Molitor type bat speed from years ago. Dude hit like .400 against lefty's last season . He's the real deal at the dish. It's fun to watch... What isn't fun is that the 'Bombers have picked up right where they left off last year. I've never seen a pitching staff give up gopher balls like we do against NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 BOE in Frederick today voted unanimously for 100% virtual learning for the first semester. There is talk about bringing in those students that have IEPs, ELL and at risk students in very small groupings so that they can have their accommodations met. Also fall sports will not happen. None one wins in this but at the end of the day the right decision was made. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously doesn’t look good right now but I have the advantage of being able to wait as my family has a time share down there so it’s not like a hotel booking or anything. Just watching and waiting.

Just watching and waiting. yeah thats nice. we just had to make a call before it got too close and we'd lose out on getting our money back. we really wanted to go, and had we been in a house to ourselves we may have still gone. but being in a condo building really put us on edge. just better to stay home and be safe, then go and have the worst happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had wanted to plan a trip to the N. GA mountains the beg of August. My IL's have a mountain house. So would be somewhat secluded. With the numbers going up in GA and me being immune compromised we decided to not chance it. IL's were disappointed but the decision had to be made. We will not be going anywhere anytime soon as all of my immediate and extended family live in GA and FL with one in OH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I doubt we’ll be going in October but we have a couple more months to let things play out. But it’s hard to envision a scenario where things get much better heading into fall.

We took our trip to OBX a few weeks ago and are still planning to go to Smoky Mountains in August, but we stay in our own house and don’t really have much indoor interaction with other people other than picking up take out from a restaurant. If one of us was high risk, we would think differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only risk we take is the grocery store and we mask up and get done. Things have calmed down there too after the outbreaks in the poultry plants. Planning to go back in Aug for a few days.

After having two kids the sizes of watermelons my bladder is not what it used to be. Heck even this morning while waiting in the car for my youngest daughters Ortho appt, which they do not allow parents in, I almost peed my pants. Got home and it was all I could do to make it into the bathroom. I was seriously so close to going in a cup in my car. The idea of an 11 hr car trip with no access to bathrooms is enough to keep me at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that there is some risk involved but what can you do? There isn’t much choice. Again, if one of us were high risk the story would be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
