The hard part was actually that I moved the box spring, too, because my bedframe was backwards and I had to flip it, too. Also it is not so hard getting the mattress on top of the box spring again, but lining them up was a pain in my butt

Combo locks is not something I had thought of, but maybe if money isn't too tight, I should.

1 piece of furniture is gone. Whoot!

After I bemoaned my lack of packing to you all last night, I packed up two boxes of stuff from the big piece of furniture that I am selling. SO YAY! I think I will take the opportunity of mac being out to pack up another (the piece of furniture is his armoire).

They`ve been great for us. I didn`t like how many keys we had floating around, some with people who were basically strangers. This is much more secure to me, plus no cost for rekeying, and I don`t have to carry a house key at all. Of course someone could still tell someone else their code just as they could copy or hand over a physical key, but it`s the work of a moment to fix the code.
 
The only downside for us is that the regular door lock and the deadbolt are separate objects, so I either would have to key a code twice or not have a regular lock. I understand the basic lock is sort of symbolic only so we opted for deadbolt only, which has worked fine for us.

Erin, I hope Seroquel works for you in the short term.

I'm hoping that by decreasing my dose I'll also lose weight.

Liese, I have a deadbolt (only) already in my front door--but how would I know if the combo lock would fit, or if I'd need someone to be cutting new space etc? I mean, they look like they take up more space. I don't get it.

When I moved in, I changed front and back doors over to key-only dead bolts, so it's impossible to "accidentally" lock yourself out (though if you lose the key....) Anyway, it's kept me from incidents where the door clicks behind you when you step out to get the paper while in your pajamas... which is just the sort of thing that could happen to me.

I had a locksmith come on a weekday morning the other day. He charged me $60 because I'm a repeat customer (he remembered the locks from ==10 years ago==) but his usual cost would have been $75. Sounds like a Sunday call would be more expensive....

The hole itself is the same size. The unit itself is larger, but it mounts the same way as a regular deadbolt. You could choose the unit you wanted and then check online or on the box for the dimensions. We just had a regular deadbolt before and it fit just fine.

ION, I just summoned up the last dregs of my sick energy to take out the trash, which I thought the SO had forgotten on his way out to pick up our work team from Albuquerque. I gathered all the various containers into a bag and took the bag out and the trash can to the street. Whereupon I noticed that both of my neighbors were home. Odd for a Monday. Except it isn`t Monday; it`s Sunday, I`ve just been sick so long I`ve completely lost touch with the outside world. So the SO didn`t forget, and I just totally wasted what little energy I do have. It sucks to be missing the day camp the team is putting on but that`s clearly the right call. With my brane this fuzzy who knows what I might have said to them.
 
And I should know it`s Sunday because new Leverage tonight, whoo! I am scheduling my pill taking around being conscious for the show. Oh, The Hair, how I have missed you. I make little blinky morse code signals with my keychain black light in your honor, Hardison. Come back to me Show!

new Leverage tonight, whoo!

I HATE COMCAST

Perkins, do you have a Comcast cable? I'm not sure with cable card tv's, but if you can connect the cable at all to the tv, you can sometimes auto tune directly from the cable without a box. It won't catch all the channels, but it may surprise you by getting USA...
