When we've had to set things like TV/computer up, my husband always seems to be helping the tech figure out how to do it. Climbingon the roof or digging trenches.

I love it! Speaking of waits... the appliance company I called to fix the gas range in our rental said they'd be out at 9:00 am. I went out berry-picking, sure I'd have time to wash the poison ivy etc from me and change clothes if I got back home by 8:45. Yeah, right! These folks showed up at 8:05 am. No kidding! When have you EVER heard of anyone showing up early? You know, I'd probably have asked those young kids what they charged and hour and gone with them... never too early to learn work ethics and reliability. Hope your garden plans work out just fine.The Odd Essayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17168404014947652773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-73024175961187872722016-07-09T20:34:13.288-04:002016-07-09T20:34:13.288-04:00Hari OM
