No airbags when I learned to drive. No ABS for me let alone air bags, had to manually pump the brakes to stop the sliding skid on ice and snow. The positive was no traction control, so one could donut in the lot with the easiest of effort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I heard the owner who wants to buy it out from under me still insisting first right of refusal means whomever speaks up first gets to buy it. Hoa got a lawyer who contacted him twice saying that's not what the hoa docs say. He sued both the seller and the title company so my sale cant complete. They cant give me clear title. Stand off, but now hes actually sued both of them. I dont even have his contact, nothing I can do. Hope the seller doesnt cave just to get his money. We did sign a month extension. I'm confused isnt owner and seller the same party? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple months ago I had to replace battery to our opener. Pretty easy to do yourself. Our opener was installed about 7 yrs ago. Surprised the battery lasted as long as it did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They give so many open and close cycles, and also have the pull handle for manual opening if the battery dies. Thankfully we have the back-up generator that runs the entire farm. Yes, my opener has that too. Yes, house generators are a blessing. We got one in 2012 right before superstorm sandy hit our area. So happy we had as our area was without power for 3 or 4 weeks. It has been used several times over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this spring you will be able to enjoy one at an outdoor dining restaurant as vaccines become more available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does not even do internet, and hates his new Android phone (too complicated for him). Tech savy...not in the least, and doesn't care. 😉 That is so like my DH. I once bought him a smart phone - he gave it back to me and went back to his brick that just makes calls. He does take it with him though because it is the number that his pals use when they call him for a beer - not that he has been able to go out since Christmas. Our bars are probably going to open again on March 1st. All these restrictions have been hard - but at least the infection rate has come down. With the restrictions coming at the same time as the vaccines it is difficult to say which has been the most important factor, but the loss of life in the elderly population has slowed down. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
