Oh good grief!!! It never rains but it pours i guess. It doesn't sound like a fun week, but one with a lot of stress and everything crashing at once. I'm hoping, that once everything gets fixed, you will have time to relax and get things back to normal.

You just have to take it all in stride. I am glad to get the A/C fixed and hope the oven part is the right one. Right now all I bake are biscuits or cornbread in a Black & Decker portable oven. I did bake one cake though, having to bake one layer at a time is slow, but doable.
33640Hi Toogie. Each week seems as busy as the last week, days merge into weeks and one wonders what day it is, let alone what month. Our rubbish bin goes out more than we do these days.

Lol-I have to look at my phone sometimes to be sure of the day. That’s what happens when you retire I guess.
114321AC man came and gone. We are cool again! Yea🤣 I wanted to show one of my tomato plants I weeded around this morning. I am watching them like a hawk. I don’t want the squirrels that are tearing down the corn stalks to decide to eat my tomatoes! I also thought I’d show all the limbs down in the front and last picture in back before clean up. I don’t know why it shows sideways but I’m on phone. Maybe if you click it will be upright.

I know what you’ve been doing Marg and all your projects look good! I saw them!

These projects have been done over quite some time not just recently. Although I have done a couple in the last 2 months.
24824I hope you now have AC after all of that and your oven is working again. My story isn't quite as interesting as yours. We had purchased a 1999 5th wheel, the kind of RV that has the curved front that a pickup truck fits under to tow it. We had almost gotten it renovated, furnished and ready to use it when my hubby decided he didn't like the blinds and removed them. Well, since then it has been a mess thanks to the several dozen holes left in the wall, having to repair them. Then it was having to paint and so on and on and on. And all I had wanted was to get the curtain rods installed so I could put up the curtains. This could be a sitcom on a TV show. So needless to say, the place is a mess with everything pulled from the walls and the counter. Tools, paint cans and so on are scattered and the curtains and rods are back home again. I guess this is similar to your wisteria story. I figure one day you will have a beautiful bush again and I will have curtains hanging in a clean and organized get away spot. And this quarantine will be lifted and life will get back to whatever our new normal will be. I am always the optimist.

We have had our share of camper renovations. I once sewed all new screens on both whole sides of a pop-up camper! Been there don’t want to do that again😉😂🤣
I think about those ‘virtual’ tv shows, I think they are called that or reality. ....I guess everyone has some interesting days but I wouldn’t want anyone following me around with a camera! Life’s not that interesting minute by minute. However, I like picturing your remodel. Sounds like a chain reaction.😳😉😂

Haha I’m afraid a puppy would wear me out too! I told hubby yesterday afternoon when we did sit down that I didn’t know why but I sure was tired. 😉😂
109762Sounds like 3-4 weeks at my house, Toogie. I'm worn out just reading it. No more problems. Don't let DH near your trees with a saw again.
66506You have been having a busy time Toogie. Not much happening here. I did get my hair cut yesterday. Need to go out and buy new slippers. maybe this afternoon. Like you I hate waiting on people when they have given you a time and do not turn up for hours. Hubby had a Phone appointment with the Doctor a few weeks ago. Waited over 2 hours so we went off to do other things, yes you guessed it when we came back and checked the phone he had left a message just after we walked away. Then the next Phone appointment with out GP he was better with the time but did not write down where to send the Scripts to. Then when we got the scripts one of mine was missing. After 3 phone calls it is finally at the Chemist. Will get it on Monday. Just as well I keep up a bit with my medication. We are organizing all our bills to be paid by direct debit as it is too much trouble trying to pay in with this Virus. Things are so crazy. WE got estimate accounts for the power and water. Cannot understand as the water meter is just over the front fence. They must think the virus is hiding in there. lol And the power meter is outside the front door. They do not have to come in contact with anyone. Oh well I guess they are playing safe.

That is another thing I don’t like. Waiting for a phone call ties you down. Like you say about the time you walk outside they call.
52676Way to go, Toogie and your "helpers"!! We've been working on odds and ends here too. Put a new TV up in my father-in-laws vacation house. Sounds easy but, was more complicated than that - lol. To make what could be a long story short - the new TV is working great! Stay safe and tons of hugs, Laura

Did you do a wall mount? A couple years ago I finally got hubby to do wall mounts in the bedrooms. They were a good price at Harbor Freight, but he won’t agree to one in the living room😩.
95274Well, now girlfriend, you sure are having more "fun" than I am! Yikes! It is exciting round your way! I hope everything gets fixed, cut, chopped de-iced and whatever else ya need! hugs* and prayers coming your way! Deb

I don’t know how fun or exciting it is but I don’t mind working. I like being out IF it’s not too hot.😉 it sure doesn’t take long tho to get hot though. I weeded some grass out from around my tomato plants this morning and I told hubby it didn’t do any good to wash my hair the night before. It was soaking wet at the roots and about an inch out. Hey, that sweat may be what’s making it go gray at the roots!-😂🤣
