Goose is becoming a turtle?



I had to stay home this morning so that I would be available during that 2 hour window when the appliance repairman could come and fix the dryer.
Goose had to be at school by 7:30 for a peer counselor meeting. Since it had been a few months since I had transported Goose to school I felt it would be safe for me to return. Anyway we load up in the car and off we go. Goose jumps out of the car and asks me to toss her, the bookbag. I think she laughed when she said toss. I reach back to grasp, lift and toss said bookbag. It was so heavy it almost pulled me out of the drivers seat. This thing felt as if it was loaded with cement. All this time I thought Goose was walking around hunched over from teenage depression, when its only the heavy bookbag. If Goose has
osteoporosis in later life the school district will be on the receiving end of a law suit.
I was there for the 2 hour repair window and all of the major Fricksworld appliances are functioning. The new 30 day total for Fricksworld repairs are as follows

Refridgirator Starter Relay Switch $180.00
Hot Water & Main PRV & Parts & Labor $350.00
Dryer Thermostat $114.00
30 Day Total $644.00

I can hardly wait for the holidays
