Ok....here goes (and I think it will be easier if I just list them) =)
1. Our air conditioner blows cold air and it comes out hard in all the vents, however, ONLY in the living room it is ALWAYS scorching hOt. We can't figure out why really. The last couple of days it's been miserable to even be sittin' in here. Saturday during the day it was sooo hot I HAD to just leave. I ended up going to town with the intentions of buying a new dish washer (tax free!!)....but remembering how hot and awful it is to sit in my own home I opted for a NEW A/C. So Royce and my dad managed to cut a hole in the side of the house and installed an A/C unit. AND MAN DOES IT GET COLD!!! =) yay for A/C
2. I really DO love mowing. Good excerice and I like to make everything look nice! So I started out on my 3+ hours of push mowing and was about an hour into it when I bumped into the water hydrant outside. OOPS. I broke the PVC pipe somewhere down in there causing a MAJOR water leak. (I'm talkin I have never seen water spray up that high...only in movies). So we spent the majority of the weekend fixing a water leak. =(
3. I gain my confidence up again and return to mowing (the next day). The grass near the barn was getting ridiculously high and I KNEW I had to get it mowed down. **(we are getting ready to purchase a tractor and I was waiting on him to get that so he could shred all of it down first)** Well...I get near the barn and a horse blanket was in my way. So I reached down to pick it up and hang it over the fence (being oh so fearful of a snake)...and what do you know...there is was....EEEK! I don't know what kind it was...but I DO know it was the same color as a rattlesnake. I didn't hang around long enough to find out what it was....or have a conversation with the creep either. I don't think I have ever screamed so loud. I left the mower and ran right into the house. The mower STILL resides in that location and unless Royce goes and gets it for me, or I gain enough confidence to go back out there that's where it WILL be. (unless they make fully snake proof suits from head to toe I WILL NOT be back). =(
Do you think my vacations/breaks could get any more eventful? Sheesh. How about a ReLaXiNg one for cryin out loud.
