ickaimpAs it was pointed out that while spending money on fixing up the house is good and all, do need to get stuff for me. Since I'm down to one over the shoulder boulder holder, went and ordered some online. Realising that this would take a few weeks to get here, I called up Alice Rae's.
They may be the only ones in town who carry my size in stock, but after the 'fitting me with a wrong size bra that cut me, then they blamed me for buying it' incident, I'm starting out with low expectations.
So I call them up, ask if they have the brand name and style I'm looking for.
And they proceed to inform me that I not only do I have the style number wrong, but I have the brand wrong.
Low expectations.... brought lower. *headdesk*
The house now has a new stove thanks tokyrakai!!! Just in time since we were down to one burner that worked... sort of.
Next up! New Toilet... or a Fridge. Used Fridge is fine. What ever karma seems to decide we need most of next. (which seems to be the way it's working. Went out last week to get a security door and ended up with black-out curtians)
