I found a sewing machine that I forgot I owned. Sheeesh. Now I've two. The
newer is a nice Singer that I scored when the local ShopKo closed. It had been
on the shelf at $139.95 and I grabbed the last (still boxed) one for $34.95.
Even had I remember the e-Bay machine (at the time) I'd have grabbed this one.

Currently I am fighting with the electronic dead bolt on the front door. I
suppose it's a nice idea. But, p*** poor execution. Once I got it open it there
was no way to keep the bolt retracted so I could close the door normally. I
wound up disassembling the dratted thing. I see a trip to Menard's for a new
lock-set in my future.

My other Suthrin traditional dislike is sweet tea. FEH! A little sweetness is
sorta OK. But everywhere I have encountered it seems to serve it tooth achingly
SWEET. Almost to the point of being syrupy. Mostly I do my tea (hot or iced)
with just some lemon - and maybe (not often) a small amount of Sweet & Low
(pink packet).

Unless another hurricane follows close on the heels of Joaquin you should be
all right after the waters recede.
