So you want to know how we spend our Thursday nights?

Well it is going to be hard to make tea tonight...

When my phone rang at work today at 3:30 pm, I did not take the call because I was busy with a student..Then I called on the way home and Shot was riding up the hill from the valve shut off to "re-fix" the pipe... He was on his 3rd try, each time the connections had blown out. By the time I got home, he had used all the "stuff" he had bought at Lowe's when he found this and had been trying to get it together...

He had to go back to Lowe's and get more stuff,, after he had taken it apart,, it looked like this picture...

So he gets everything set up, the lights turned on his tools and sack of "stuff" from Lowe's... he has dug the hole out and he is a plumbing dude!!!! My hero,, he can fix anything..~once he does it right and quits trying to screw it together hoping I do not find out how many corners he cut until it breaks again~ Poor baby I know he is tired, worked all day, hasn't had any supper, fixed the pipes...

what the hell????

You are NOT parking that thing in my new outdoor living room, i.e., porch, did you hear me??? Shot Brown I am telling you!!!! I'm telling Big Momma!!!!

I can't believe you are parking that thing in/on my new back porch. I guess I know now why I got it.... blaaa, bla,,,bla,bla,bla,, go inside, wash your hands and take a bath....love you...

When we get old

OK, so we have been building again... well, not us, but Cap't Terry and Donal Duck (not their real names, but what Shot Brown calls them...) and then we had to paint,, well Shot did,,, everyday after work and I helped.... and then we had to have banisters,,, they had to be painted before they were installed... Me: let's put down the plastic and paint them under the new porch away from the sun,,, Shot: nothing... So, he set them up on the plastic in the grass next to the cattle trailer balanced on ladders.... IN THE SUN!!!!! what did I say????? ok,,, let's get this over with. I am on the down side and he is on the upside... So I bust my butt sliding down on the plastic as we were trying to move the banisters to prop against the cattle trailer...
Shot: are you ok????? Me: leave me alone, if you had put this where i told you to,,, etc., etc., etc...bla,,bla,,la,,,yak, yak,,,yak,,,wheeze.....etc... (you get the message)...

The banisters look really good.

This is Shot Brown's new favorite place... I guess I am going to have to make him a quilt...
