I just ordered all 4 hoses for mine for 29 dollars through Rock Auto.
That's different, sounded like you fixed it for him and the thing blew up lol.

Use to have girl problems every now and again, (I have two daughters lol) - not so much anymore. Well a little one with my oldest daughter right now, she purchased a house and is fixing it up. She's borrowing just about everything out of the garage at one time or another. The other day she grabbed the shop vac, no big deal right, - but she took my dust pan too. I mean what the hell, shes to cheap to buy her own dust pan now ? I do use the thing. So yea, just little things lol.

LOL... I have 3 daughters. Oldest is 12.... and I am already feeling that pain. My 12 year old likes taking my tools out of my bag I keep in the house... and I have to find them in her room.... so frustrating. I buy a new tube of Crest Pro-Health (my favorite) toothpaste and a couple toothbrushes..... brush my teeth with the toothpaste ONCE. Go back later that night, and where's my damn toothpaste? I go downstairs to her (MESSY) bathroom, and there's my toothpaste... half the tube is squeezed out in the sink, and there's the other toothbrush I just bought.

I don't mind providing for them.... but you know? LOL. I hate when someone moves my cheese I guess, LOL.

Thank yall for checking up on me.

Yeh it's not good. We aren't going to have power for a good long while. I'm just hoping we don't see any flooding from the rivers.

That really sucks, - sounds like most everyone's okay though. I know there is a lot of help on the way, but yea, getting back to that normalcy.....that's going to take some time unfortunately.

Hang in there, it will get back normal.

White....I have a boy and girl, both grown now, but talk about stuff getting moved around. My son would take my hand tools, my daughter would take my CD's. I could never find either. I looked one day in my sons car for his spare and found my carry box, two socket sets, numerous wrenches and screwdrivers laying there. My daughter had half of my library of music on her shelf. You can't have anything when you have kids. lol

JP...glad to hear you beat the weather. Now comes the fun. I hate cleaning up after someone or something else. You don't have a choice, but it still pisses me off sometimes. Keep the chin up. This too shall pass.

Bear....what exactly do you do at your job. Boilermaker? Whatever it is, it sounds like you have it made where you are. lol

Brew....I can totally sympathize with you. My daughter had to move out of state for me to get back my Little Giant ladder, Milwaukee Sawzall, and my gazebo back. Problem was I got all of her extra stuff to store for her also. I'd of rather kept her up here, but I also wanted the ladder back. Decisions, decisions. lol

My Dad was a boilermaker for about 2 weeks when I was a wee lad. It was in January, and I remember him coming home for the weekend (the job was in Kemerer Wyoming) extremely ill... I begged him not to go back up there, but he was going to go back so he could provide for us. Then out of nowhere he got a call from another place that welded on the big trucks from the copper mine.... not even 10 miles from our house. That made a 6 or 7 year old kid very happy.
