The hose is too short, she says.
As I'm working from home and she is "at work", it is my duty to add some hose to the one she was attempting to use yesterday to water some sunflowers she had planted.?ÿ She advised that I add a length of hose and then put it on a very slow trickle to soak the area.?ÿ I had a better idea.?ÿ That idea worked great UNTIL I stood up for about the fourth time.?ÿ As my head went up, it struck the bottom of a hummingbird feeder with a glass jar, about one quart in capacity, that was nearly full.?ÿ The impact was enough to dislodge the wire hanger from the hook in the underside of the 4X4 horizontal timber.?ÿ As I felt the magic elixir running down my neck, I also felt the entire assembly rolling off my shoulder towards the sandstone liner of the flower bed.?ÿ I attempted to knock it away and onto the lawn.?ÿ Too late.?ÿ It exploded as it grazed the outer side of a stone. Did you know it is quite a chore to recover shards of grass-green glass from green grass??ÿ It also involves a lot of time of having your head lower than your heart.
The sunflowers have been successfully water.?ÿ The shirt joined a collection of other clothes to wash.?ÿ A shower was involved to get the sticky out of my hair and other body areas.
No work completed.
It's almost Friday... ???? ?????ÿ
Sent her a text explaining why she needed to stop by a certain store before coming home tonight.?ÿ "It's for the birds", as she would say.
Her sympathetic comment was, "Short people don't have such problems."
BTW, did you know hummingbirds have middle fingers??ÿ There are seven or eight critters trying to feed from the single 5-port feeder left.?ÿ When they see me looking at them, they all pull back, turn towards me and give me the "I'm number one" sign.
It's almost Friday
Around here Friday signals two more work days until Monday.?ÿ Whooped dee doo!

Feeling whooped by the doo doo.
Friday the 13th ???ñ?ÿ
