He said – Hand towel, dish towel, what’s the difference?

I just want to use a towel to mop my massive brow after mowing the yard. Don’t they both get washed after they are used? Using the same detergent in the same washing machine?  I don’t have ecoli growing on my head!

Life Imitates Commercial

No bickering here… yet… but we just totally did one of the bits from Nationwide’s Life Comes At You Fast.

It’s the light switch flipping one.

He’s standing a light switch, wife is at table obviously doing something requiring concentration. He’s flipping switch to see what it controls.

We just totally did that!  We have some outside lighting and a pond pump that stopped working last winter.  Today I decided I would fix it.

The pump didn’t work, so I moved it to another outlet where it worked. I came inside and checked all the breakers and they looked OK.  I said something to her and she asked if maybe the light switch that didn’t turn anything on could control it.

So we did the bit.

I wonder if my neighbor’s garage door was going up and down.

She said – only ironing one pant leg

Building the Suez Canal….yeah right. (see previous post) Trust me if he was in charge it would only get half done but in his mind it would be completed. Let me give you some examples: I’ll mow the yard for you this week (once in 12 weeks!) – however, I have to re-do it because he leaves unmowed strips, sections not mowed, you get the picture.

Hey! I’ve got it – he may be on to something – I’ll iron one pant leg, the back of the shirt, half cook meals, etc. This could really free up some time for me!
