The Good Banter Thread

[Big Lou]

"What goes around comes around."

The lady next door decided to take the advice of another neighbor and not pay us back for work she asked us to have done on her behalf.

She had pest a pest control company come to her treat the exterior of her for terminates this past Tuesday. Since we both have zero clearence lots city code requires her to have me sign a property access release for tradesman to come on our property to spray the base of her property line house wall. She must be ashamed or something because she never sought the routine release hense the pest control supervisor quit the job. (I know this because I was sitting on my front yard bench and could hear them talk.).

Sad, very sad. The money didn't really matter. It was only $50. A simple "thank you" would have settled the deal.

Acts of stupidity seem to breed more or the same.

Your box of cold air should arrive by 10:30 in the morning.

A very blessed nice day. Met with a truly knowledgeable siding salesman from Home Depot, our son got his new used car and our supper at Cracker Barrel was very good. As a bonus the Cracker Barrel servers were efficient and friendly.

Hope you also had a great Friday.

( happy smile )

Mine went OK. Took a short walk in the cool of the morning. Got the swamp cooler (evaporative cooler) going in the shop. No water over there yet so I run a hose over there and fill a 200 gallon tank which lasts a few days.

 

[Big Lou]

I did not think swamp coolers were still made. Are the modern ones more resistant to mold? Back in the day I was told those devices produced more mold spores than anything else.

No matter where you are on this big spinning marble phase a moment to smile! A simple smile can do wonders.

Uh oh! The word "phase"" should be "pause".

Lou hope your brother is doing well, keeping him in my prayers. Can't go to church today so I'm watching it on TV

Oh poo, my lawnmower went kaput yesterday right in the midst of mowing! Hubby had to finish w/ his big one. Looks like the tranny is shot. Wonder how much that will cost to fix or will we be spending the big bucks on a new one...............cuz I can't live w/o my little mower! It gives me alone time to think, dream and fly like the wind :biggrin:

 

[Big Lou]

Speaking of "flying like the wind" the bee situation has broken the last straw on the preferable camels back. It's time for the bees to fly away! Every hour or two another bee is buzzing around downstairs. Don't have a clue as to why but after a short time the invading bee dies. Our Hoover is now the offical "dead bee vacuum". Beekeeper with son apprentice to be here tomorrow to rip open one area of the siding to hopefully capture the queen and her worker bees plus remove the comb, clean up the mess and spray special pesticide into the exterior wall cavities. In addition to that cost we will spend $$$$ on residing the "bee zone".

Please send passitive thoughts our way because soo many things can go wrong or be discovered tomorrow.

( bye bye bee expression )
