| - Deedee had a really rough day this week...sick as a...well, as a dog!
Poor little pup!
She had an unpleasant reaction to some of the medicine she takes for her arthritis...she and I are both getting up there in years!
Placebo's and scotch don't help as much anymore!
She's fine now...oh, a little stiff and sore, but still going strong!
To make a long story short(er), I had to get the carpet cleaner out of storage (what, you don't have your own carpet cleaner?!?!).
You know, clean up a few of the spots where she got sick...not really worth having the full blown carpet guys in.
But when I went to use it, one of the doo-hickey's in the fremastat had burbled and the plenum gargoon was kaput!
So that had to be fixed...and in spite of my prowess in fixing most things, I didn't have access to the Plurkie's spanner and the Spretzer spindle needed to repair it!
It's a Hoover (boy do I love the word..."Hooooooover"), and a look at the Hoover website (checking for the right part - a left handed torsion nozzle) led me to Park Ridge Vacuum (another word I love..."Vacuuuuuuum").
I took it by PRV and they fixed my Hoover in about 10 minutes, while I waited...and they charged me exactly $5.00 US money!
I could not have asked for better service, better prices, more convenience and nicer people...and to top it off, they had the PGA golf tournament (reg. tm. - "Glory's Last Spurt") on their TV, for my viewing pleasure while I waited!
I would not even consider going anywhere else to get the fremastat on my Hoover re-snorkeled!
