I asked her what she was planning on doing in respect to the storm, she essentially said she was going to bring her cushions in so they don't get rained on ... i told her that that backyard was a veritable death trap in 100 mile per hour winds ... and she said she'd ask her friend to look at it ... as she is heading to California on Saturday out of Logan ... seriously, please ... |
Andy, you should go stay with family or friends for the storm, and then MOVE....... |

Yeah ... makes sense, although I still have the broken leg to deal with  ... so no moving until that is over ... but will start looking ... I got her to put the glass and stuff away, but she still left garbage cans, flower pots and two touring kayaks lying in the driveway ... I have to think that they are just mentally challenged or lazy ... but this is the same person who has not held a job since I first met her more nine or 10 years ago ... I guess that points to it ...
I would have no problems moving the stuff if I wasn't on crutches but hopefully it was cause some serious damage to her property and be a good .... "I TOLD YOU SO" scenario |

Kayaks boogie'n down the street at 70mph would be fun to see! Just don't want to be at the spot where they "land". Probably in somebody's read car window. I would like to see a pic of the boat hanging out the window though. Who needs Thules!
