I just wanted to say "Good Morning Everyone!" It's good to be home and I'm looking forward to a fresh new week!

I love coming here to see what everyone is up to - good and bad!

I hope everyone has a good week!

TTYL!

Good morning Gayle!! I'm glad you're back, and I hope you have a great week

I'm waiting for the tv repairman. I have a 52 inch Samsung LCD that is 2 1/2 years old. The warranty went out 6 months ago and the tv won't even come on

So, I'll probably have a $2300. paperweight

But it's a beautiful sunny day, and I intend to enjoy it

Good morning to you too Gayle! I am also planning to enjoy my day. It is bright and sunny so I am going out today to run errands, post office, grocery shopping, etc.
Have a great week!

Betsi, sorry about your tv, we replaced ours with a new one about a year ago. It was cheaper to buy a new one than to repair the old one.

Oh Betsi! Sorry to hear about the TV. We have a 52 inch Sony that is 5.5 years old and is showing funny colors on the screen sometimes. I fear it is on its last leg. Don't you remember when TVs used to last 10-15 years!!!

I know.. TV's and laptop computers are a pain!!! The repairman came and I got my tv fixed for $215. Beats the heck out of buying a new one, lol!

WHEW! You were LUCKY!!!

We have a 42 inch Samsung that's having problems coming on. It sits and clicks for awhile before it comes on. I'm not happy because it's only a couple of years old. Our last one lasted for about 18 years. They don't make things as well as they used to because they lose money......this way we have to buy more often.

Gayle.....I'm so glad that you're back home all safe and sound!!! I thought about you so much on your trip! I would love to go somewhere like that! I hope that you found some time to enjoy your stay there!!

Diana, your TV has faulty capacitors. This is a huge problem with Samsung. They haven't done a recall, but they have had a huge number of complaints about this same problem. Mine clicked like that, but it never came on.

Betsi! you are a wonder!!! A TV repairman to boot!

It's the pits the way newer TV's, appliances, etc, just do not last long enough.

I'm glad that you let Diana know what the problem is so that when the repairman comes, she can be prepared - I don't trust them!

LOL, you're funny Gayle!!
