Had a cleaning service come in yesterday (3/21/19) 

3 maids, cost $312 and $40 for a tip.  Something to do every 3 years or so.

============================================

No the car wasn't repoed it is at the Ford dealer for a fix on the electronic throttle which has a service bulletin out.  No charge to me, just an annoyance for a day.

Had a few parking permits made up.  In reality there is no such thing, but I like to play around with such things and they look nice. 

5/30/16

On 9/30/15 I relocated from the old Kennesaw house to a new (12 yr old) house at 110 Holly Mill Village Dr, Canton, Ga. 30114. Purchased it for $152K.  Taxes will be just under $600 a year as I am exempt from the educational tax and have a homestead exemption as well.

Rather than spend $1,500 to move the old furniture from K to C I sold most to a used furniture dealer and purchased a new living room and master bedroom sets of furniture, later I put in a bed and dresser for the 3rd bedroom.  You can see from the photo sets of both places that some bits and pieces made the move with me.

Hope we get a decent President at the Nov election.  This last one was a total waste of time.

About 185 days ago I purchased the below 2016 Ford Explorer XLT for $45,262 from the Tidwell dealership in Kennesaw.  Lots of fancy stuff that I will probably never figure out how to use.

My driving is about 17 miles a day, probably would have been cheaper to just call a cab rather than buy a car.

I also had my will updated this is current as of Dec 2018.

=======================================

Thanks for looking in.  Shown below are photos of the 'old' Kennesaw house which I owned for 15 years.

This is the same room seen many other times on this site.  Only change is the new 47" TV, the Black and White to its right shows the view from one of the 3 outside cameras that view the street in front of the house.

Feb 2014 is an odd month for Georgia.  We only get snow on the ground every few years.  2 weeks ago we had it and lots of drivers were stuck on the variouss roads, some kids had to stay at school over night.  This is what my yard looked like.  My 2013 Ford Escape had to be parked at the curb as I could not get it up the incline and into the garage.

Today Feb 12th we are having a several day ice storm and most things are closed and roads are iced over.  Second time this month for such nonsense.


Thanks for all the 'look ins' from Russia.  I visited for about 8 days during the Carter Administration.  Took a tour, saw Moscow, Vladimir, Suzdul and what was then Lenningrad.  Saw a lot of old churchs and got a night train ride from Moscow to Lenningrad.  

2 snow scenes from 2 a.m. Feb 13, 2014, ice storm for Georgia, 2nd snow incident in 2 weeks.

I will add a few more photos to this site.  3rd photo - Top row center and right are from my 2007 trip to India for a heart valve replacement, read about it at:  http://www.trip2medi.com/costComparision.php
