[QUOTE="sandman3, post: 133869, member: 4719"] I had a day like yours recently....difficult child 2 has been inpatient for 17 days (came home tonight!) but just as we got thru week one of visiting (the hospital is an hour away), the van starts SMOKING profusely, we pull up to the house, I can smell the coolant and see it dripping everywhere. GREAT! So, knowing I am flat broke, I come in the house and decide to vacuum because the place looks like a flippin' tornado hit it.....within 3 minutes of starting her up, the vaccuum is making the most horrible sound and starts SMOKING! OMG, I can't even believe this....so out of total despair I decide to turn on the TV and veg on the couch while I contemplate the Van and the Vaccuum...I reach for the power button (it's in slow motion now), my finger touches the surface and BAM! The TV shorts out by some kind of electric static hoodingy, it's DEAD! This all within 30 minutes! My dear friend says to me "quick, grab some bubble wrap and roll yourself up in it"! No Joke, right?! It took me an hour to clean out the vaccum and get it working again, the van cost $108, and the TV went to the junkyard! [/QUOTE]
