Pump, ATT, Weed Eaters, Hair, Misty, Project Finished

 

Hello to all.

I was sitting here when all of a sudden

it hit me, in the post below I mentioned a challenge

I had with ordering a pond pump, then 

the issue with ATT with my internet and TV.

Which by the way, no issues since the surprise 

fix it did all by itself.

You all know this cause you are all 

are adults but life is so full of

challenges at every turn. Hell, sometimes you 

don't even need to turn, cause

those challenges tend to slap you in 

the face. 

My other challenge that was going on

at the same time as the pump 

and 

ATT, 

was happening. 

It was the challenge of the 

WEED EATERS!!

I came to this area with my 

battery operated weed eater,

which by the way, do you call it

a weed eater or weed whacker?

That did not last cause the 

charger just went out on it. I got a 

gas powered one, I never could get it

started cause the cord was hard and

I don't have the ump to pull it.

I went with the tide and true 

plug in one. Yep, worked good, but

with three extension cords I still couldn't get

to places I needed to. I bought another 

battery. I barely get one side and the front 

done before it dies. So, then I bought

another gas, cause DJ (middle grand) told 

me he would do my weeding if he had one cause

that is all he uses when he is with his dad

(they do yards). I ordered it, it came....

in a box torn open and retaped on my porch 

by the delivery guy. Parts were mising.

I had to get a refund and purchase again.

FINALLY,

it arrived, box not torn open

and all the parts there. 

I put it together, now I am 

waiting for the rain to calm down

so DJ can take care of my weeds.

Weed eaters are for sure my challenge, 

it's not just this issue, need I mention 

that when it comes to putting the

string on there,

 is a HEADACHE.

I always get something crossed and the 

line will not feed.

Going on record...

I HATE WEED EATERS.

Moving on and away from my challenges.

This is a pic taken a month or so ago,

but I wanted to post again so you

can see the hair.

WHITE.

So, I did a thing.

Low lights.

Now I don't look all washed out

and according to my daughter, 

I look younger.

I have had this done before, yrs ago,

but the lady did it where it 

was more blocky and not so natural 

looking. I love this.

And although it makes a great change,

I really did not expect Misty

to notice but she set 

next to me looking at me like this.

 On Sunday, 

Amber and I spent the days together. 

More on that tomorrow.

I had a Wally World delivery yesterday

afternoon...

my pump came in and the pond

is done.

In honor of a frog I keep running 

across in the yard, I added

frogs to the pond.

Some floating, some sitting on

rocks below the wagon and a duck

Yes, a duck. The ducks head however is

top heavy and it will not float holding

its head up. So, I have it sitting on 

the pot.

Thinking that this area might

need to be concreted cause it might be

an issue (back to the weed eater), keeping

the weeds from growing under the

wagon and it is in the position it is

in and rocks propping up wheels, I don't think

I need to be moving it to cut.

The sound is amazing.

Night shot, with the flood lights

on. 

Here are the gutter draining 

things I have told you about. One for

the left and one to the right part

of the house. 

And the start of the dry creek

bed.

Gotta get in there and 

slide the shovel under the grass

taking the top layer away.

Then lay the plastic lining down

and river rock. But before that I 

need to make a creek run and pic up

some more border rocks to finish up.

A lot of rocks!

Tomorrow, I think I will sat 

by the wagon and listen to the water.

Have a great day,

Pam
