My legs, feet and hips hurt. I have had to move in then out two people. Sadly, they couldn't follow the rules. It's always so sad when that happens. I really feel for them. We also moved out someone into their own apartment.

Our last hurricane taught me a lot. Charging isn't a problem. Expect more Boo. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
On top of that, don't most people have phone chargers in their car? Even I have one of those.

It happened once before. She was gone for a week or two. BNut was supposed to be her back up and was mostly a big fail. to the surprise of nobody

Good call.

I personally don't have one in my car, but that's just because I'm too lazy to fix it. Prolly just the fuse.

Whoever put BNut in charge of that should be strung up by their toenails and stoned with wadded up 2003 Sage Seneca Wallace rookies. Some things are THAT important.

You don't have a guy for that? Does a guy for that cost assjubblees money?

He volunteered if I recall. This happened when BNut was semi-responsible. That was the start of the downward slope he's been on ever since. Note that he is in freefall now.

The longest I was without power over here was 4 days. This was after a hurricane around 7 years ago. Fortunately my parents never lost power so I crashed on their couch to get some AC at night.

It would be fixed if I had married a man who was handy, but I didn't. Dunno what they teach at UF but apparently it wasn't car wiring. Grrr.

If it was important I'd fix it right now. I do all of my own car maintenance, plus my hubby's too. It's not a money thing, though we don't have Azzjubles kind of coin. It's more about not trusting anyone else and self-reliance. I'll change my own oil for a long as I drive a car.

Four days without AC is an eternity certain times of year. Glad you had options.

Hubby and I slept in his car and ran the engine for AC off and on all night hoping the power company would rescue us soon. When we finally got word it would be at least another week, we knew we just had to get away for a bit.

Hurricane Katrina was the longest we have been without power about 3 weeks. We have a generator now but have never had to use it.

The Grusome Twosome have really done a number on me the last year or so.

I am determined to break out of the free fall and be trusted to be Josie’s back up again.

No. No way. C'mon.

Even functioning at a high level, do you honestly think you're up for such a monumental responsibility? Honestly?

We are talking about the natural biorythms of the Blowpit ecosystem here. One slip-up could cause chaos. Two slip-ups could cause the extinction of several BlowPit species entirely. Maybe the whole Pit.

Ive come to appreciate all that is BNut and I'm even becoming a fan, but this is too important for anyone with a spotty background. I wouldn't even trust myself to do it, let alone you.
