That sounds like the best plan - you need to stand firm that Ed has to be there to deal with him, and none of this 'I was planning on being here when DH shows up, but something just came up, so I'm leaving.'
If it's oil stains on the driveway, Coca-cola is supposed to work.
Well, that's just terrible. A person doesn't quite know what to think about that - was it shaky when you were there, or has it gone this far downhill in the time you've been gone?
That's the kind of trick my mother would have played on someone. I'd forgotten about her doing that kind of thing until your story reminded me.
Sounds good to me. I'll write a post about cheese grits.
Hah, hah! Brokey.
That wood doesn't look too close to me - I wish wood would catch fire that easily - usually when I want a fire, I have to work at it, not drop an ember on it or wave a spark at it.
Our flickers are more likely to attack the house than the woodpeckers, but it wouldn't surprise me if the woodpeckers could try out the gutters some time. In the summer they come drink out of the hummingbird feeders.

My impression of Florida is it's a haven for old folks, and nothing wrong with that. When we were younger, we joked about the drivers down there - turn signal left on for miles, the early bird specials, the snowbirds. Now all the states have those things, so it's not a joke any more, it's normal.
If you'd made really big, important mistakes, you wouldn't be here on MyBloggers at the age you are now, writing about it to your friends, you'd be dead or gaga in a nursing home.
Whenever I go to England my relatives there are always very interested in what I thought about the Presidential race - more interested than I am. But I'm looking forward to seeing who ends up as The Candidate.
Well of course you had a major plumbing disaster because you have a guest - now she'll probably think that's how you live all the time- from crisis to crisis.
It's a pain dealing with the public; it's why I'm a recluse if given a choice.
I'm picturing how pretty it must be down there, tornadoes or not. We're having a cold spell.
Remember all those computer glitch scare stories leading up to Y2k? Lately I've had so many problems with various programs, I'm starting to wonder if there was some sort of intentional flaw built into some of my software by Microsoft and Adobe in order to force me to have to update programs that were perfectly fine 11 days ago.
