The guy who called this evening seemed surprised we were still having problems so I showed him my most recent bites. Hopefully Thursday will fix it all.

I'm not sure exactly why the fact that you're not paying them precludes you from contacting them, either. I'm inclined to agree with Alex J. Cavanaugh about telling the super that if they were doing the job properly you wouldn't have had to call them. I hope this treatment works, though.

How rude telling you that you can't call them anymore. Who do they think they are? I presume they're getting paid for the job? They're providing the service and should be held accountable. My Grandma was very big on using Marsala. She used to drink it before dinner too. There's nothing as yummy as a pastie. I haven't eaten one for years and now I want one!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09174682655234764319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-25748519487101857112016-02-09T17:23:59.721-05:002016-02-09T17:23:59.721-05:00You're right Denise, it does.

I don't blame you for getting upset. <br /><br />They're ruining the Superbowl commercials by leaking them out weeks ahead of time. I saw a few I liked- surprisingly they were the ones that drew controversy from the women's association. I kinda wish they would say they represent women, maybe adjust to to repping some women because they make us seem like we have no sense of humor.

What finally worked for her was doing this type of oil treatment through an exterminator. She had to pack up virtually everything and they heated the house to over 100 degrees with the treatment, took 2 treatments but then everything was cleared up.<br /><br />I for one was very happy the Broncos won over the Panthers.

When I think of how I slathered myself in baby oil and laid out for hours...I do worry about something showing up on my back. That part of me used to get burned the worst. And that marsala recipe looks amazing. I make chicken marsala for Russell every now and then. I'll have to compare my recipe to this one.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.com
