Mission Accomplished . . .

or Oops!

Well, I got our Splendide washer/dryer reinstalled this afternoon and so far it’s working fine.

I mentioned yesterday that I was going to put straps on the washer to help me get it out next time. And there will always be a next time.

New Washer Straps

The straps are fastened at the top rear of the washer and run down the back and then underneath and out to the front. I’ll then tuck them behind the retainer strip so it will look like this.

About 5:30 Jan and I headed to Chris and Linda’s for a meal of homemade gumbo. Chris did the cooking and did a great job, making it with shrimp, crabmeat, and Cajun sausage. Really, really good, served with rice and French bread.

And for dessert we had homemade bread pudding with rum sauce. Heavy of the rum, very heavy. And very, very good.

And even better, we got to see Piper and her boyfriend Casey since she wasn’t working tonight.

We finally headed home about 8pm after a long, busy day, and a delicious meal. And it looks like tomorrow will be busy too.

As far as the “Oops!”, it seems like in their hurry to ban magazines that hold more than 7 rounds, the New York State Legislature forgot to exempt police from the ban, and their pistols all hold 13 – 17 rounds. After being told by law enforcement that the law applied immediately to civilians, civilians are now trying to perform citizen’s arrests on police officers.

The Legislature says that they will fix problem in the next week or so. Several people have said that they plan to file lawsuits to force the police to obey the law.

The Second Amendment:

When they tell you you don’t need it, Is when you need it most.
