I am a Respecter of Persons, but …
I’ve been asked to not blog about someone today … who shall remain nameless to protect their identity. I am a respecter of persons but, of course, there is also my constitutional right to freedom of the press, and we all know how free the press can be.
So, I will just say one word “deadbolt”. That’s innocent enough, isn’t it? I don’t see how just saying deadbolt would hurt anyone’s feelings.
I would also like to say “Lock Smith”. Can I just say that? I mean shoot, anyone who wanted to could call one up any time they wanted … if they wanted … and who would be the wiser? Sometimes I suppose someone would be the wiser but that is not for me to say.
“Do it yourself” is a catchy phrase as is “Save Money”. They generally are said together but they don’t necessarily go together. There are a variety of variables to consider.
“Defective Part” What are the odds?
Three trips to Home Depot might not sound innocent at first, but I bet lots of people make three trips to Home Depot in one day. Heck, I personally know people who have done that!
“All Day” is innocent enough, too, so I feel okay saying that. A lot of things could happen in an entire day if one wanted to be doing a lot of different things. Quite a variety of things, I would suppose.
I’m dying to tell the story of today but out of respect for someone whose identity I will not reveal … my lips are sealed. I may laugh and make fun in the privacy of my own home, but some things are just better left unsaid. I guess. At least that’s what I’ve been told.
By the way, Lynn has promised me a new front door! Can you believe that? A new front door! I shall paint it red to match the roof!
He is definitely the one and only Fix It Man.
Drat !!! Nest time I will have to seal her fingers too!!!!
Drat!!! Next time I will have to have her seal her fingers too!!!
That’s hilarious! Lynn fixed our dryer a few years back and our dishwasher. I’m looking forward to the time when he’s able to use carrots to fix something around our home. I like how he put the larger part of the carrots on the inside making it easier to close from the outside.
I am totally using this idea if I ever lose a door knob…
Like Plain Jane, I think that’s the neatest door knob I’ve ever seen. And I’m really glad you don’t spill the beans on everybody like some people I’ve read. But I sure enjoyed all those words you wrote.
LOL!! This gave me a great laugh to start the day
I knew from years ago that carrots were a favorite choice for a tool, but I had no idea that it would take three to fill the ‘deadbolt’ hole. A new red door will be such a joy to you Edna – I just hope carrots aren’t needed to install it. ROFL
Awesome! I had to click over and read that other post too… I take it he’s forgiven you for pouring nasty water all over his head?
So Funny. Great laugh, just what I needed today!
My hubby has used duct tape, super glue, pieces of old inner tubes and lots of other materials in his fixing life, but I don’t think he has ever resorted to a carrot. Too funny!
