Solar flares or just bad luck

Man time flies when life goes on around you, can't believe that is been over a month since I put up a post here.

Now onto what's bothering me today, Is it the effect of Solar Flares or just bad luck that just about everything electronic I own has had "issues" in the past couple of weeks. First the dryer went, now against my darling brides advice I thought it's only the bearing, it'd be a waste not to fix it. Anyway my helpful appliance repair man kindly charged me $80 to tell me that it was stuffed. Next in line wash the washing machine ( think it died of a broken heart at the loss of it's life long dryer companion). Ok now we expect things to come in three's so wait another week and the TV decided to become a purple and white TV...very cool visually but not the best to watch for any length of time. Well that's 3 down that's got to be it for a while I think to myself.

DOOOH, wrong again... Walking past our Hot water system on Saturday afternoon I notice lots of water pouring out and youch it's hot water...never a good sign. Hot water systems do only last so long but this one (very expensive heat pump type) is less than 3 years old.... NOT happy. The loverly lady on their support line then informs me that the warranty doesn't cover labour and it'll be about $350 to fix it...NOT HAPPY I may have even let out a couple of mild profanities after getting off the phone.

Anyway for those readers who are still with me at this point I feel much better now, In fact I might even go for an invigorating cold shower.
