Gettin too old for ladders
Dear gawd. Replaced an overhead light in one of my daughter’s room & fixture was thinner which meant screwing in bracket screws further. But no room between bracket &!ceiling plate. Tried a few diff screws and finally found some to fit & were shorter
One hour later... Where’s the beer?!

9. I've learned to keep Malibu Rum out of my house. Can't resist drinking it. And drinking it.

13. Have you tried Rum Chata?
It's cinnamon, cream and rum. Just sip one shot at a time.

3. Glad you didn't get hurt! An emergncy room doctor I know said that aside from Covid cases, their
number one thing now is people falling off ladders, cuttig a finger with a saw, or other problems associated with home fix-up. Everybody is being their own handyman with their downtime.

5. Oh. That reminds me
Need to get the stepladder into the attic
A new antenna came in and I want to swap it out and see if I get NBC and Fox better now. I usually get one or the other barely. Or fully at the cost of lesser signal strength on ABC and CBS. Stupid Orlando towers |
