You can’t have enough tools ?

Gggaaahhhhhaaaaahhhhhaaaaa!!!!
Yes you can.
I have a tool for EVERY task!!!!
But I got smart! ?

Every time I went to fix some thing (a floor—a deck, a door.. etc..)
My husband would show up eventually and tell me how I was “using” it all wrong.
So I would politely ask him if he would teach me how to use it... by the time I had stopped saying “can you show me just one more time?” He was finished with the job!

Bbbwwwwaaaaaahhhhhhaaaaahhhhhaaaa!!!!!!! ???????????????????????????

Sorry, but....I...I.... feed him and launder his clothes! The LEAST he could do is fix stuff.

Good afternooning all. I have been doing duties as a Wildlife Transportation driver today.

We had 2 ducklings that needed to go to a rescue which specialises in waterfowl.

The roads were a nightmare, but with something as cute as this peeping away next to you it doesn’t feel so bad

Hey Heather, to change the subject. Awhile back you posted a stand to stick a cactus pad on to feed the torts.
Did that work out for you?
The huge cactus pad I bought for Lola has almost finished. I've been rationing it so that he didn't have sloppy poop. He absolutely loves it. I usually give him some when he is in his soak and as soon as he smells it he almost jumps out of his tub!

Honey do lists are totally ignored at my house. If you want them to finish it, you have to start it yourself. I really suck at home ec!

Rehab House Update - we have relatively “new” washer & dryer units in the mud room area right off the garage entry. The top of the washer unfortunately has lots of small scratches & rusty marks. We bought some high-end Appliance Enamel spray & gave the entire top a good spray. We’re letting it dry under a tent overnight so no dust settles.

Morning Ray!!!
it does work! All it is is an all thread bolt hammered into the ground with about 6” left above ground.. I screwed a nut down about 2 inches from the top and put a washer over it. I just push the pad on to it and then screw another nut on top to hold the pad on.

Do people expect to the washer to be left when they buy a house in the US?
In the UK most people take their own with them or maybe they are given the option of buying one if the seller doesn't want to take it.
