Wait until you retire ...

Post by Pepi »

Daughter two called .... Dad, the dog broke out my front picture window. Went down and took it out to size for new cut glass.

Daughter one called .... Dad, there is water all over my utility floor. Water heater leaking. Going to Lowes this morning and getting a new one to put in.

Grandson one called .... Papaw, I got a new battery for my Bass Boat and I hooked it up backwards by accident :facepalm: Tracked it down to one wire that got pretty hot and a 20amp fuse blown. Got her fired up and it appears the alt isn't blown :)

All this shit on Sunday :D

Anyone want to help me out mowing and planting my garden :D

You may just be LUCKY :D Seems like the only time they call or come around is when food is on the table and when something breaks :cry: Well, out to mow the yard because Lowe's don't have the fucking waterheater they say they do :mad:

Welcome to the midwest. We're set to hit freezing temps again next week. A medium chance of snow during that time.

When the fuck I'll get my garden laid out this year I have no idea. May just end up with buckets in the house and grow-lights.
