So excited!
Have from the 5th to the 24th of January off...
Heading back to Cebu for 11-14 days...can't wait to see the girlfriend. Hoping her passport arrives this week or next week...once she has that we'll get her a visitor visa hopefully.

My daughter called to tell me this. Makes me very sad. She was so young
She was 60 one year older than I am. What a shame. Star Wars won't be the same. 2016 has sucked.

Booked our tickets to go to Florida to meet up with my family at Disney in early Feb. So looking forward to it. Will be the first time Kovi meets my family.
She had already completed the last Star Wars movie. She would have been difficult to replace.
She was 4 years younger than me.Nice to see you posting.
I am not excited about 2017.

There is no way the role of Princess Leia should ever be re-cast. Ditto for Han Solo & Luke Skywalker. For better or worse their portrayers ARE those characters.

Debbie Reynolds -- who rose to stardom in "Singin' in the Rain" and quickly became a staple among Hollywood royalty -- died Wednesday as a result of a stroke, TMZ has learned ... just one day after her daughter Carrie Fisher passed away ... this according to her son Todd.

Wonder if it was a case of "died of a broken heart"

I think it might have been. May she rest in peace.

Most likely. So sad.
If anything happened to my daughter I know I would be done with this earth.
Wonder if it was a case of "died of a broken heart"
Her son said her last words were "I want to be with Carrie" or something close to that...
Totally heartbreaking....
Girlfriend couldn't get any time off from work approved...so I don't know if I'll be going to Cebu now.

pissed i missed my hockey game because of the snow.
its my only exercise.
so i just shoveled 6-12 inches of the heaviest snow ive ever shoveled. i dont even think a snow blower wouldve worked

I hated shoveling that ****. It was like shoveling bricks. And invariably, if you didn't shovel it, a hard freeze came along and turned it into 3" of ice.
Apartment living has some advantages, and not shoveling anymore is definitely one of them.

W the metal roof, it slides off all the time, so I just park the snowblower out on the big deck and go slow. First storm didn't take care of those piles that fell off fast enough and they do turn to ice. Had the warm day a few back and used that to chip with a sledge and then threw the ice chunks off the deck
after the bruins game sounded like our roof caved in from the snow in my daughters room.
ran upstairs into my daughters room and it was fine.
had no clue what it was until this morning.
huge friggin pine tree branch fell on our electrical wire and ripped it off the house. still have power though.
i hate pine trees so much

I hate effin trees near my house. I've had over 100 pines and oaks cut down in 18 years. The neighbors still have several 80 foot trees capable of taking down my house,and theirs. Pine trees are so shallow rooted that last summer's drought ain't gonna be nice when the storms show up.
we have cut down alot since we moved here.
we have 3 80footers in the front along the road. they all hang over power.
nobody would cut them down we called.
they are coming down in the spring. at least 2 of them are. gonna see if the electric company will do itfirst.
tree company will prob charge me $3000 for these 3 trees
Every time we have heavy snow or an ice storm I can hear the pine branches snapping off and falling to the ground. Some of them are quite large.

In addition to no property tax, no homeowner's insurance, no out of pocket expenses for appliances that die (especially AC and heat), and you can move at the end of a lease without the rigmarole of putting a house on the market.
I have a small townhouse, and it works for me. But if something ever happened, I'd likely go the renting route.
Regarding no homeowners insurance- this is incorrect. Tenants should purchase homeowners insurance to cover their personal property & liability. Many tenants believe they are covered by the landlord's insurance and this is simply not true.
