    Well, better put on some makeup & whip up a pot o' chili before he arrives. Maybe there will be a reconciliation.

    Awakenedsoul, no offense, but it wasn't so long ago that you were giving Spartana much grief on your own threads when she offered a viewpoint or differing opinion from yours. You would become angry and tell her that she was OT or to not post on your threads, and you did that with others here too. Now you're saying she's one of our best writers, but she's been driven away by Packy. Interesting....

    I don't think Packy is a troll, although I definitely think there are some here for sure...

    The Spartana I've known for years from here and the old boards would not be driven away by anyone. She'll be back if and when she wants to come back...

    Why not just go with a different plumbing company?

    No, Song bird is 100% correct. I am not a Troll. I am just trying to give you the very best advice on the 'net. I also miss Gardenarian and Spartana very much. Hopefully, they will return, soon.

    I probably would, but then that may well be excessive avoidance ...

    It is really nice to have a partner to do things that you enjoy. Good luck!

    This.

    What happened to all of the red flags?

    Is your dog suddenly ok with him?

    Well, see--it was like a stock-car race. They threw up a Red Flag, when there was a problem on the track. It sounds though, that a Yellow Caution Flag would've been a better call. Nonetheless, comprehensive background checks, credit reports, blood tests, etc., are in order for BOTH parties, so there are no surprises, later on. Get their fingerprints and DNA samples, too. We wanna see their "Carfax"', if you get my drift.

    Awakened, I just read this sentence wrong--

    "I couldn't get the 1940's water shut off to turn off all of the way."
    I read it as though you had a special shut off for the "1940's water", like you had a special tap coming into the house with water from the 1940's--I think it's because to me, your cottage sounds like this really magical place, like a step back in time!

    Awakenedsoul, I certainly don't know why you are not responding to my posts. I certainly haven't attacked you personally. There is too much sugar coating and coddling on these forums... I tend to just tell it like it is and from everything you've described this guy is trouble with a capital T! I've been married for nearly 40 years so I know what a good relationship is. You need to run as fast as you can from this guy! Drunken driving, time in jail, verbal abuse, bankruptcy, etc. This guy wants two things from you and I think you're naeve to think otherwise... Trust your dog's instincts. I have a few friends that have been in these types of relationships. Nothing but heartbreak. Good luck!

    Songbird: If we can't accept input from each other and accept opinions that differ somewhat from our own, we might as well all go talk to ourselves in our bathroom mirrors instead of talking to each other here. I don't see where you've attacked anyone or said anything offensive. Glad to have you around.
