Slip Screen

Probably not the same problem but my sprinklers run on well and house on city. Sprinkler guy messed up and opened city valve/closed well valve. So we watered 3 acres with city water for almost 2 months. After the first month, we thought it was a meter issue b/c they put in a new meter about 6 months before.

We had a 24KW Generac installed about 4 years ago. Nothing but good things to say so far.

No right answer to this other than there is some minimum level you need to be willing to pay (regular vet care, stitches for cut paw, etc.). I've replaced 4 hips, 6 ACLs, and had one spend almost 2 weeks in ICU only to pass.

I've had a 60 ZT Avenger for 4 years. I've been good about routine maintenance (oil, filters, blades, plugs, etc.). It has worked like a champ. I mow about 6 acres each week in the high season. I should be better about about clearing debris but sometimes that takes too long and I end up going over it (within reason). Yet it has held up well (blades certainly dull more quickly). I don't have anything bad to say about it functionally and the routine maintenance is easy. I wish there was more shock absorption in the seat but I also realize my model is not a high grade model, and there may be after market upgrades available for the seat.

I plan to upgrade the mower next spring and use the old one for areas that are more prone to debris to help longevity on the new one.

This is the answer. They can play in other countries, but that is what they'd need to be prepared to do.

Gen X - I don't. Daughter is 23 and I doubt she does because she types as fast as I've seen anyone type. But she should since she's had a laptop since she was 5 and has been taking school notes on a laptop since she was in middle school.

If I ate one meal a day and it was a 6 inch sub. Even a salad is $20. I likely spend 500-700 a week eating out. 5 week day lunches. Friday and Saturday dinner. Sunday lunch. But I am usually paying for wife, mother, and MIL in 2 of those last 3. Almost never any place fancy. Mexican if everyone has 2 margs is 150.

We have a 3100 sq ft house and have a 24kW generac. The size obviously depends on what you need/want to run. If I recall, I went one larger than they said I could get away with.

Runs everything with ease when it's needed. Had it for 4 years. Probably kicks in 3-5 times per year between storm power loss and power company errors that inadvertently cut power. We ran it for almost an entire week only once post storm and had no issues.
