Lightning Update

We are ALMOST done!!!

A/C - ALL FIXED!!! And we are enjoying it.
Water Heater - Done
Dishwasher - Done
Garage Door Opener - Done
House Alarm - still not working, will have electrician out to replace transformer
Surround Sound Receiver - Done - after replacing receiver we discovered sub was blown, so that has also been replaced now
C's Desktop Computer - Done (and hard drive is okay!)
Cable/Internet - Done
HP All-In-One Printer/Scanner/Copier - Done (had to have it for work)
Riley's TV - Done (replaced with bigger screen, tv/dvd combo)
Master BR TV - We are trying to decide what we want to replace it with...the tv that's in there was our old living room 32", but we don't NEED that big, and of course, Chris wants LCD or something, so we're still researching
Washing Machine - Done (ended up getting a new one)
Attic - need to call the company out this week

So, we're getting there. I'm not sure if I mentioned the Virtual Real Estate Assistant business I started in May, but things are starting to get busy with that right now as I've been hired to work 2 contracts right now, and I'm hoping for more to come!

Weight loss is still going well. It has halted a bit (we ate out A LOT while a/c was out), but luckily I'm still at same weight, so I'm slowling getting back into the groove of things.

Our 4th of July was totally uneventful because the cable guy was here until 8pm Tuesday night (big fireworks show was Tuesday night that we were supposed to go to). Wednesday a bunch of friends came over and we hung out in our garage/driveway, but we could only see a few random fireworks (no front row seats like our last house in Plano). Oh well, guess we'll catch it next year!

Rain is still a total downer for us...keeping us indoors, and from doing anything remotely SUMMER. Ugh!

Hope everyone else is enjoying their summer!

I can't believe you got struck by lightning! YIKES! I highly recommend an LCD tv for the bedroom. We just replaced our HUMONGO bedroom tv with a smaller off brand from Target that has been WONDERFUL so far! It fits on top of a bookcase and I can actually see the whole screen over my husband's giant feet. I had to fight for the smaller one. It's a bedroom not a movie theater!!
:-) good luck!

Glad to hear everything is getting fixed! I am sure you are relieved to have the a/c back especially! We have an LCD tv hanging on the wall in our bedroom- LOVE it! We have had it about a year and it has been great.
Like I said, we missed y'all on the 4th and can't wait to be closer in a few yrs to start celebrating together agian! :-D

Glad to hear that things are slowly getting back to normal! Good luck with the tv decision. Jeff bought a HUGE 52 inch tv and loves it! It's our main tv though! Now we need one for our bedroom! Might have to check out the Target one!

Good luck with all of the repairs. We just got back from a week vacation in SA and dodged the rain-that was nice. Hope it dries up for you shortly!
