Outside Of Here

[krebs303]

Anyone have a washer like this. I will. no frills. the top has no hinge it's like a trashcan lid!

The tub is huge. need some thing big enough to wash king size comforters and blankets.

Very simple controls. It's on sale for about $275USD. The conventional type washers in this size have buttons enough for the space shuttle and run $750USD and up..

Edit: Ha ha there's no spin cycle! poo

 

[usedtobefast]

no spin? yer gonna need a good dryer. or warm sun.

 

[krebs303]

I bought this one yesterday. The trash can model had no spin cycle so it was out. I went to buy a a 16kg washer for
$450USD but found this 20kg marked down from $720 to $575. One day sale on floor model so I said wrap it up

No more turning on the computer or having to walk to the kitchen to see what time it is in the middle of the night. I have a wall clock in my bedroom.

Despite the Hype, Mexico Is Indeed Safe for Tourists
After an increase of violence among drug cartels and between drug cartels and Mexico officials in 2010, the U.S. Department of State issued the first in a series of Travel Warnings against Mexico. According to the April 22, 2011 Warning, its purpose was to “inform U.S. Citizens traveling to and living in Mexico about the security situation in Mexico.” The Travel Warning goes on to claim that “While most victims of violence are Mexican citizens associated with criminal activity, the security situation poses serious risks for U.S. citizens as well.” Unfortunately, and at great expense to both the U.S. and Mexico, these statements are inflammatory.

Had to save my bathroom for last. The cold water valve would leak. The hot water line had a leak in it. So when you needed hot water you had to go outside to turn it on or off. If you left it on the gas wouldn't shut off and would keep running till the propane ran out.

Got rid of the tub spigots and raised the valves. Put in all new hot water lines. The hot water line to my bathroom was under the floor encased in concrete. So we ran the line through the rafters. After all the water damage that just got fixed I was a bit leery. So I had them put all copper pipe in the attic.

New hook ups for washer and basin. Old washer was outside with only cold water

On demand water heater now indoors

Edit: next to last. There is some electrical work to be done outside where the power line hooks up to the house. I think every thing will be done tomorrow.

Have you considered a wris t w a t ch?

Yes, those four letters get censored in that word.

 

[krebs303]

Too funny a wrist watch may be in order as I can't read the clock in the dark

I'm beginning to become the rich ***. A microwave!

The last of the electrical
before

The after seems a little safer. The ratty extension cord goes to the trailer which is going away tomorrow. And I'll pick an outdoor cover for the outlet box. The top outlet is 220V

Holy crap. That looks a little dangerous. Glad you could improve it.

Does Mexico require permits for any of this?

Good question. I don't know if permits are required.
I have never heard of any one getting one. Maybe on new construction. Your the second one who has asked. I'm going to try to find out

Edit: Looks like I'm good
Article 53, of the State Construction Code Book for B.C.S., Mexico, Say you do not need a permit if you are painting or repairing plaster on your structure without effecting the structural elements, Changing Electrical and or Plumbing installations without effecting the structural elements, Waterproofing your roof without affecting the structural elements.

 

[Cobblestoned]

In Germany, you would be arrested for that.

Zucht und Ordnung.

Wouldn't joke about that, Cartman.

We'll start with Poland and Ukraine next year, and then have a look to the West, instead of spending the winter in the East.

And we'll continue our cool ways here up north!

Yeah, I hear those winters in the East can be pretty rough.

Time for the trailer to go

adios

my roomate is very happy it's gone

It's moving closer to the beach

 

[krebs303]

Some color for indoors

Money from the early 1900's

Will frame them and hang on wall

In keeping with the brothel heritage of the house. Some brothel tokens to be framed

 

[krebs303]

Getting some things together.

Have a few ideas. nothing concrete. this is not one of them

I've had these posters rolled up in the closet for quite a while. My guy is framing them for $10 each. I used to just tape posters to the wall.

Good job RhD I haven't taken any classes in six years. My favorite exams were in the pool.
I was studying to become an Adaptive Physical Education teacher. I took American Sign Language so I could teach among the deaf culture. My favorite was teaching 5-6 year old autistic children to swim. I was heavy in the aquatics. Swimming Instructor, Lifeguard Instructor, Aqua Aerobics, and was starting classes on aqua therapy. Then I got injured and now I need the therapy

Keep up the good work

 

[RedheadDane]

Maybe I'll be able to repeat the feat on Thursday.

Which reminds me; I have a presentation to prepair...
