What a whirlwind

Mar 23, 2009 10:34

Last week I was in a panic. I noticed a water stain on my ceiling and checked out the attic to find a leak from the roof. Major depression set in. I don't have the money for this.

Bruce decided it was time to mow the yard. We keep our riding lawnmower in a shed in the back yard...well the battery was dead so he drove his Toyota pick up down by the shed to jump start the lawnmower...quick job right? then spent an hour and a half trying to get the damn truck back up onto the driveway because the yard is not flat there, and the tires would not grip, just spun out...ugh!! finally put down several pieces of plywood and got it up the small, but uneven incline, after removing our 2 bird feeders that are on poles and our heavy stone bird bath. He was not happy that day. We know all about those little projects. Took 3 of us and over 30 hours of work to remove wallpaper from our bathroom wall that was not put on properly...finally after using every spray, gel and steamer product on the market, Bruce got out his power sander and sanded it off, as it was pulling off the sheetrock. That went on over several weekends.

LOL. Yeah, I was like....where did this wheel come from. Then was like WTF. But you would have loved the scene in the front yard most of all as I was kicking and cussing out the mower. It was like that scene in Fawlty Towers when Basil's car died on him and he warned it to work. Then he went and got a branch and beat his car. I was Basil.
