That light is on a timer. Pop the filter out and stick it back in and the light should go off.

Just got home from Bible study, wasn’t a fan of the sweet tea they had.

Have your wife do it when you’re out of the house. It’s the only way.

The other day I was walking to my truck & carrying the tupperware containers from lunch. When I grabbed the door handle, the automatic unlock didn't operate fast enough causing me to foul stroke the handle and drop the tupperware. Got it on the second try, but geez . . . stuff like this will make ya rethink your buying decisions

I laughed at this one last week....
A young lady at church was explaining to me why they arrived at church late. Seems the automatic gate opener on her mother's Mercedes was not connecting to the gate signal so they could not get out of the driveway.

Couldn’t find the remote for my fireplace this morning. We’re tucked away warm and cozy now at the local motel and I have put in an emergency call to the maid to come and find it. Hopefully she’ll find it before check out time tomorrow.

I think they are bowed already. Good idea on the cross brace.

Chew, I saw the coop you are building above. You need to step up your game! As handy as you are, I know you can build one of these and be the envy of the neighborhood.

My remote start on my truck times out after 30 minutes and won’t allow another restart until you put the key in. I left it running today at Walmart but was in there too long and came out to a cold truck.

My ceiling fan needs more speed options or a variable speed controller.

Last night High was too cold and Medium too hot.
The thermostat is down the hall and I wasn’t that motivated.


On another note-
Could someone please pass the Grey Poupon?

Wife got a new iPhone 14 today. Came home and got on Amazon looking for a case. First one we saw was 10K and she said I want that one.
We settled on a $100.00 Otter Box.
Geese 10K for a case???

I always grab my power wagon work truck keys instead of my Cummins personal truck keys when I get them before heading out the door to work. I gripe and complain all the way back in the house. Definitely first world problem.
