I can not believe my luck

Some people have a talent of making us laugh at their misery...You Lori have that gift. Hope at a later date you can laugh at it too.

Oh dear Lori....what a time you are having....Kmccue is right though...it does give us a giggle. Your trials with your stove remind me of trials I had with the furnaces in the chicken barns so I can really relate to what you are going through. Especially the trucking out at 4:00 in the morning through the sleet and finding the place filled with smoke....Been there too. I laugh about it now but at the time....Aaaarrrrrggggghhhh

hi lori, just read your blog at 4am ( i'm on the night shift ) and thought 'old bessie' was your cat! had to read further to find out she was a tempremental old boiler lol , cheered up the tail end of this shift anyhow...............steve

Well Lori I enjoy reading about your encounters with Old Bessie. lol. I can understand how you feel because I had an old burner once and it did the same thing. I didn't have a name for it though.
Now if you want swear words I can teach you a whole lot of Welsh ones. I won't put them on GoY though incase I get flagged. :o)

Hi Lori ~ Sorry to hear Old Bessie is giving you so much trouble.....But you do make me laugh keep the blogs coming! :0)

i have this mental picture of you with old bessie, you certainly brought a smile to my face!! Oh dear i bet it was a mess!! Hope all is well now, and hope for your sake she can't be saved LOL!!!

The mind boggles and yes I,m smiling at your antics but on the plus side after all that smoke I doubt you will suffer a plague of bugs in that greenhouse.........

Bessie seems to have a personality all of her own. And a sense of humour. She's certainly giving us a giggle.

LOL. Do you really have a dog named Useless?

Love your sense of humour, Loribiscuit!. Wish I had your greenhouse! I've wanted a greenhouse since I knew what the word meant!... House hunting at present so maybe I'll be lucky and find something out there that will be just what I want... don't care about the house ...does it have a barn ....a shed...? a GREENHOUSE???? As for bessie..hmm...sounds like you might be related to Steven King! There's a novel in there somewhere!
I sure don't envy you the cleanup though...the smell will never completely go away until you have your flowers blooming...by then you won't need her help. do you have an evaporator on top? you could put her to work...making steam...but your fan would have to work a little harder...!!
