And then the door fell!

I had quite the weekend filled with stress and panic,fear, tears...You name it.

It began with a health scare while at the hairdresser and a ride to the hospital in ambulance....

But don't worry, everything came back negative! But we did spend 12 hours in the emergency room while they were making sure Dan was A-Okay.

Thank god I had my trusty aluminium .lunch box containing snacks....But it wasn't enough.

This was my dinner:

 2 baby bell cheeses, 1 pack of Melba toast and 2 soda crackers....

Needless to say I am sooo tired I felt like a zombie at the office today...

Yesterday afternoon, I had chicken thighs in the oven...

 This is my 1980 Roy oven.

So yesterday afternoon I opened the door

and immediately knew something was not right....

The door just gave out, I was holding it with my oven mitts

As you can see, we know have bricks and a melamine plank holding it.

And I will not be using it anymore.

My Dad said it had been a good oven and had given all he could and it was time to take it to pasture....

So I am now shopping for a new one....

I'll keep you posted.

Be well!

 

K-Tel Electric North

First and foremost I want to thank each and everyone of you beautiful ladies who left comments on yesterday's post. As I read all your words of encouragements I was misty eyed and I felt like a million bucks!
 It was quite a milestone for me and I'm glad I did it. I also want to give Tracy and Ginger a double hug for (without knowing it) giving me the push I needed to go through with this. 

Now for something silly and tacky! And vintage of course! A couple of weeks ago I found this at the church basement...

I thought of my pal Erin @ Toronto Yard Sale Snoop who's always posting vids from the 80's and I just had to pick it up (besides it was FREE). K-Tel was the company behind most of our music compilation and peddled kitchen gadget similar to Ronco in the 80's. This compilation was released in 1983...aaahhh! the year I turned 18! 

It is an hilarious video! I don't know if the tunes where played in the U.S, but who cares? Anybody can enjoy the 80's style...N'est-ce pas?

Check out the hair! Evryone knows that to be a great 80's musician you had to have long hair and tight pants!

Or about this one:  Crimes of Passion by Rough Trade. This group was considered very risqué in the 80's.



And this last one is a hoot, an 80's hoot that is! I remember listening to that one. Those early videos really crak me up!



I hope you enjoyed those tacky vids and let me tell you my friends I have plenty more where that came from!
