| The Rains Of October by JJ Oakley Isidore hu? The grass died on the lawn last month, and now the dead, brown lawn is a dead, brown wet lawn. This is certainly in keeping with Mr. Murphy's law. So my daughter has decided to move back home. No problem! Just take all the tools and lawn equipment from the garage, and rebuild it into a very large bedroom. All you need to do is frame a closet, and finish it out. Oh yea, don't forget carpet, heat, and wire 40 amp service for Air. Opps; The AC is not large enough to accommodate that space, hum $'s...? We bought the 3 bedroom 2 bath home new, last August. I thought that would certainly be adequate. Oh yeah; What about the tools? I now need a shed in the back yard to accommodate those items. Let's pour a concrete pad and frame that out. Now, does this sound about right ? Sure, we all have times when things come up which requires CHANGE. Remember that word? What is it about things tending to come in three's? Oh, I know. The storage shed is all done. Just need to get the shingles up. No rain in forever, so I may as well put the tools in my new shed, and get the shingles up this weekend. Now, back to the Isidore thing. The lawn mower. and electrician tools et, were sitting in oh, about a half inch of rain this AM. Can any of our reader's relate to this? Well sure you can. No matter what anyone says. This is the best life I ever lived. |
