Omg! i feel like that type of insanity only happens to me! I'm not glad it happened to you, but I"m glad that we're both not alone, lol! I have friends that live in Sde Eli Ezer and Zefat :) I would love to visit Israel myself one day!

Best of luck with your plunbing, great photo & thanks for linking up!

Love that image - and how the nuns mirror the columns.

Holy crap!!! And of course hubby was on a biz trip, that's why it happened. :( Sounds like something that would happen here...wait, it did, just not to the WOW extent as yours. Dude.

O.M.G. I can't even imagine ... Glad you had good friends around to laugh like a crazy person with. (And maybe have a few drinks with!)

I do love the shot -- nicely monochrome with just those bits of blue/green. So nice of the people wearing red and pink to stay mostly hidden.

Margaret - check the connections where the pipes join. If they look rusted and disgusting call someone in for a look. At least one of my neighbors have already called someone in to replace theirs before the same thing happens to them. The plumber who was here said they're all bad, it's just a question of time...

I feel like this is a disaster waiting to happen in any of our old buildings in NYC, ours included. If you have any advice as to what to look out for before it happens, please advise! (I am serious!). Love the photo of the nuns marching on St. Peter's.....

Wow, that is awful.. But I love the photo!

2012-05-30T13:42:10.322+03:00

Sorry about the water problems!

2012-05-30T11:19:22.547+03:00

And we thought the Hot problem was bad. Oh Robin, this water disaster is awful. And dangerous sounding too. Umm...you didn't stop to take pictures, I guess? With your wrench in hand you probably looked ready to strike someone (the someone responsible for all the bad plumbing).

But the nun pic is fun. Marching on St. Peter's, they are.

Try to stay safe and sane, dear Robin.

Oooooh. Shiny shoes. Also, YOU WENT TO ROME! Even without fast internet, I'm jealous of your life.

Sounds VERY frustrating!

Just catching up after a month or so of LTYM immersion. Love the shots you posted from France/Italy!

You snuck off for a weekend in Rome? How on earth does that happen? Lovely photo. Want to see and hear more about it!

Very sparkly. But probably living hell on the feet & back. Nicer to look at than to wear, probably...

Arghhhh. How horribly frustrating. But pretty shoes make for a good distraction.

2012-05-24T10:14:56.343+03:00

Sorry about your internet trouble. That kind of hassle can drive me crazy. But don't you love the sandals this season? I may never actually wear a pair like these, but I do think they are fabulous.

A lot of woman stuffs :)

2012-05-23T21:49:42.352+03:00

Yikes, look at those spikes. Do chiropractors do good business in Rome? Or do just the tourists buy, so the U.S. chiropractors do well...

2012-05-23T19:27:17.176+03:00

I once wore spikes but not that spiky! I wonder if they really ruin one's posture for later years. So far, I can't say I blame anything for how my posture is today, except age!

2012-05-23T19:11:13.339+03:00

Hope it lasts this time, I know what you mean, we live in a rural area and I have to have 2 internet connections one for me and one for everyone else so that there is enough bandwidth to work and so I have a backu, even with an upgrade it can get pretty sketchy infact I'm not even sure which one I''m on anymore. What it is about torture devices for the feet that makes us drool, the colours perhaps, the spikiness, I have enough problems just walking even with supportive shoes. I know women who buy such eye candy just to decorate their homes with no intention of ever wearing them :)

2012-05-23T18:27:48.593+03:00

I can absolutely empathize with you on the battle with the cable company. I'm surprised I haven't picked up one of those designer jackets for myself yet - you know the kind, with the arms in the back. ;)

But shoe shopping (even window shopping) is always therapeutic! :)

2012-05-23T15:08:35.197+03:00

TimeWarner is just as bad .. everytime they offer us phone/internet/cable packages I say ''no thanks, how would I ever contact you to let you know of system issues when my phone wont work?'' .. seriously .. I feel your pain

And are all Italian women so short they need such high heels? The podiatrists in Rome must be very wealthy

2012-05-23T13:19:49.806+03:00

Lovely shoes! Have you considered switching to Bezeq and Bezeq Beinleumi? I had so many problems with Hot and so many visits by tecnicians,until I could not take it any more.So I switched to Bezeq and have since had no problems:) They deliver what they promise,at least in my case.

2012-05-23T12:49:13.322+03:00

Love the shoes! We live in a world so complex that even shoe displays are complicated.

Here's my
Wordless Wednesday. I hope you will stop by!

Oh Dina, that would send me completely round the bend! Didn't they finally figure out that some animal had been chewing something in your case?
