SATURDAY MORNING WHAT'S UP?
Morning OFF family....
Well yesterday turned out to be SO busy for me...screened two new tenants and they were BOTH TURNED DOWN!!! OMG!!! So next one I will call Monday morning see if she is ready to be screened and if so I need her Check for that. Gosh this is not good that 2 were turned down!! One was bad credit...the other was owing another landlord money and we do NOT rent to those that owe other landlords!!!!! Instant reject!!!!!! This one claimed it was her HUSBANDS fault NOT hers. Oh well...nothing I can do...its on HER report.
Called to make an appointment to get oil changed and tires rotated on my car. On HOLD for OVER 20 minutes and never got the service dept to answer at all!!!! I gave up waiting. When lunch time came I sent email to my salesman told him what happened...also told him I was STILL waiting for a call back from early May on getting the price on truck fixed. I was not happy on how things were in that "Service Dept" Next thing my cell phone rang...it was the Manager of service dept. He offered me FREE oil change, free tire rotation for my not getting served properly. OMG!!! I said ok...What the heck...he asked if I could bring my car in at 2. Sure...then I got busy again...got the car there asked if He could give me a ride back to work...he said he would give me a car to use!!! OMG!!! Brand new Buick!!!! Boy was it ever nice!!!!!!!! Wished I lived further away to enjoy it more!!!! LOL Had a BOSE radio...NICE!!!!!!!!!! Anyhow he called and asked if they could wa**** for me also...sure...boy were they ever kissing up!!! Said car would be ready at 3:30. Told me if I couldn't be there then they were there til 5. OK. I got there about 4. He had the guy that never called me about fixing the truck apologize to me...my salesman was there also and HE apologized to me also...they said they hoped that I would continue to come back to them for service on my car in the future. I said if I can get the phone answered and an appointment I would. We shook hands and I left. I got home and turned on PC last night found email from my salesman and he said next time Call HIM and HE would make sure that I was taken care of properly!!!! WOW!!! And All I said to him in the email I sent was nobody ever answered my call and I waited 20 minutes or so...whats wrong???? Guess they really want my business huh??? Wonder how much that Buick was?? LOL
Today the weather is nice...tomorrow brings more rain/storms all week. BUT...hope and Pray that in Michigan come Father's Day the weather is NICE for the NASCAR Race!!! We are going to that!!! FRONT ROW SEATS!!!!!!!! Oh yeah!!!!! Right by the entrance to PIT ROAD!!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Talked to my mom this morning see how her birthday went yesterday...she said nice...when she was coming out of Joe's back door to come home she fell...didn't get hurt she said...GOD I HOPE NOT!!!!!! 93 now ya know!!! Scares me half to death!!!!! SIGHS.....
Well need to get going here and get my bedroom straightened up and make room for a chest that was left behind in one of the tenants apartments when they moved out. Going to use it for a dresser for my clothes that seems to be overflowing!!!
Thoughts and Prayers for ALL that need them!!!!
HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Hi all,
Getting ready to for my right total knee replacement on Thursday. Will probably go to rehab for a week or two after till i can go up and down the 14 steps at home that get me to my bedroom and bathroom. I wanted to wait till the end of the year to do this, but my knee keep giving way. I cannot afford a fall and anything that goes with it.
Read the posts daily. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Will keep you posted on where i land after surgery home or rehab.
Blessings to all.

Good Morning Judy and OFF Family,
Judy, it's great that the service department showed you they're willing to go above and beyond. I've never had to wait like that. I always got my car serviced at the Honda dealerships I bought from. Now that I have a Toyota, I hope I get the same treatment there.
Colleen just called. My poor Frankie has bad double ear infections. I'm so glad she took him in to see the doctor. The Meijer here fills antibiotic prescriptions for free. Colleen was waiting for it to be filled when she called. They were supposed to go visit Trent's brother and his baby today, but the doctor said Frankie's virus is contagious, so she isn't taking him. She's not sure if Trent's going.
Well, I better get moving. I am really behind schedule already.

Hot sunny day here, friend asked me to come out to countryside cottage for a BBQ, 2 weeks ago was eaten alive by bugs at her place. Still have scabs, and my cancer med makes me really heat intolerant as sweat all the time and wet hair 5 times a day is uncomfortable. Have AC on at home and really want to stay here, but dont want to let her down. I am the charcoal/bbq expert, she makes the salad and bought a bottle of nice Rose as red is just not refreshing on a hot day. She promised to put up sun umbrella on her hot deck....I have to cover up skin because of radiation therapy ended 1.5 months ago. I normally love sun, fresh air of the country, and wine on a sunny deck.....but am dreading it, despite the fresh salads and spring asparagus, all because I can no longer tolerate heat like before!
Think I will have to go, and leave immediately after eating, we are only 2 of us this time, and I hate to cancel on her, plus a cloudless sky today! Normally a great bbq day.
Edited to add: I went, and got there in time to rescue the dying charcoal fire, and brought a foiled half side of salmon ready to roast, she had a lovely salad of asparagus, spinach and cucumber ribbons. The biting critters mercifully stayed away, and I enjoyed my wine with ice cubes in shade of sun umbrella. Glad I went, despite not wanting to earlier....Moral of story: kick your a$$ in gear and you will enjoy.
