Andy,

If the residence or business is located in Aantares the Ant Farm Dump will take it. However, there are bins out back,if you want to save the trip. Also, there are two large load washers and three commercial size dryers in the basement so you don't have to go to the laundramat.

Tengogozo is a disposed Queen ant in disquise

I will check mine, don't forget to check yours.

They never show when there are new messages anymore. More of Eve and the InfoPop Gang's destruction!

What I wouldnt give for a commercial sized washer and dryer. I keep seeing a commercial on TV that says their new washer can wash 16 pairs of jeans at once!! WOW! My laundry days are not half as full as they used to be but old wishes die hard I guess. can you imagine?

I would like to take a moment and reflect on the ant name my mother used to call me, on my very busy days... *iss ant, yup, thats what she called me. certainly not a dainty name but a name I can take on eve and the info pop gang with. My other nick name was Lu-Lu, from that naughty little cartoon girl... Heavy sigh, I tried to be good, really I did.

Cassie, be careful what you wish for. We got a great big ole washing machine last year at Sear's Scratch & Dent store. Well it is so deep I go in head first and almost can't get back out when I have to get the clothes out of it! I never thought that could be a problem, but it is!
What I want is one of Maytag's new dryers. Have you seen the commercials? I think it is called a Neptune. Anyway, up top is a cabinet where you can lay things on shelved, then lower is where you can hang things and at the bottom is the regular dryer. Now, I am wondering if I would need a ladder for this one? I don't care, I want one!

Ahh Pheebs, what a riot!! I really should rethink this, taking into consideration what you have said. being as I am a whopping 5"1', I may have that very same issue.

I dont think I have seen the Neptune but sounds like my kind of machine.

Out of all the chores, I like laundry best. Not sure why... MAybe the clean soft scent of them when I take them from the dryer? OR is it all the crisp clean dollars I find in almost every load??

Sometimes I return it and sometimes not. I warn about pocket contents...

Pheebs,

I've seen that commercial and thought it was a great idea for hanging up the clothes that can't go in the dryer.
Way Kewl, and probably very pricey.

Here it is in all it's glory



Price? $1,799. Oh well....

They make a Neptune washer too.

It looks wonderful!!!! however, I wonder in my PMS weeks how many of the cleaned clothes would get shoved and hidden into that cool cupboard??

Oh my, I can see that in my laundry space, oh, yes I could. thinking on it, I could get a special step stool to reach down into the deep, big washer?? contemplating...

Cassie

Get the dryer, you deserve it. But as for the washer like I got....don't do it. I am telling you I get bruises on my midrif trying to get the dang clothes out without falling in. A step stool will only make you higher and your fall grater. But, get the Maytag Neptune Washer. It loads in the front, kinda. I couldn't get a good picture of it but they are big suckers too and really neat. I saw one in person. No problem getting the clothes out.
As for storing clothes in the dryer? So what? It makes a nice closet up top there.

oh my. tengogozo wanted is an ex-queen ant! a disposed queen ant in disguise. she must fear for her life. the insectivorous moles, anteaters or aardvarks must be trying to find her. and others?
i have been sent to a very important ant colony. this gathering must be where other displaced queen ants are sent! what should a mere worker ant like myself do? oh my.

i must protect my queens at all costs. i must continue to live here and fight for my queens. i have to keep working here. oh my.

Andy.... got any sausage gravy and biscuts? I am starving this morning and it is even chilly here in St Pete! I will have a nice cuppa tea to go with it please.
I hope CJ can find yoru avatar soon!

Andy,
It is a humbling experience being a disposed and disguised queen. We have learned the value of the worker ants, and we love you. Do not worry about protecting us, we also have some military ants incognito here. We are concerned for you!

coming right up, phoebe buffay. the order is in.

tengogozo wanted, my other queen. i am pleased to be here and i am humbly at your service as well. i hope to be worthy of the hospitality which has been afforded me thus far.

thank you all for your acceptance of one totally insignificant worker ant.

oh my, please forgive my oversight, tengogozo wanted my other queen. i forgot to ask you if i may get you some water?

That would be wonderful, Andy. You are a prince amoung ants if there ever was one.

actually, tengogozo wanted, my other queen, i have no royalty in me. i am but a humble worker ant and i am at your service.

please excuse me, i must go now and bus a couple of tables.

i am happy. i have a position in a very nice establishment with an absentee proprietor in a very great ant gathering with plenty of nice ants all around me. plus we have many queens to guide us with their wisdom.

i am happy. i will sing my new kitchen radio chinese song by chunnie and chair:

"i got chow mein, i got chow mein, i got chow mein......"

oh my! i have reacquired my old picture id from somewhere! thank you my queen cj!

i am even happier now!

"i got chow mein, i got chow mein, i got chow mein!"

Hmmm...

Uh, no chow mein for me, andy ol' boy.

However, I'll have three cheese enchiladas with an over medium egg up top...rice...beans...and, some chips & salsa.

Oh, and the very first cup of coffee from a FRESHLY made pot. Cream.

Thanx, ol' bud.

Good to see you back Pepper. Hope you had a nice time away. Lots of reading for you to catch up on. Have a good day.

Peppy!

Did you see that dish Emeril made on the morning show this morning. OMG, it looked so good.
Layered a Pyrex dish with roasted pablono, then a layer of crumbled charizo browned, then cheese then a layer of this egg mix and on and on. Topped with salsa and sour cream. I have indigestion just looking at it but I want some!

Pheebs, Enjoy your time away. Godspeed on your return.

Thanx for the welcome back, Cassie. Actually, I wasn't too far away. I was in the neighborhood, so to speak.

I keep failing to obtain my mandatory hall pass from good ol' Ceejers, though!

I MAY be in for some detention...or cleaning the chalkboards...or something equally horrid...

I missed that, Phoebers! Sounds super yummy, though!

Hey Andy -

Thanx for holding down the fort for me...

Right now I would just about give vital organs for a good margarita...
