Baseball vs. lawnmower = window loses
Seriously! First the stomach flu, then the toe, now the window... did one of you curse me?
This afternoon's original plan: Write up some deals, pick up some kids -- one from school, and one from the sitter where he was safely ensconced while I did my workshop this morning. What actually happened? Let me tell you a story...
So I get home from the workshop, am eating a late lunch, and think: It's cold in here, I'd better go close the window. Start walking across the room -- Oh wait? Why is there broken glass all over my couch and chair?
5 minutes later, the guy who mows our lawn knocks on the door and sheepishly hands me this.
In case you ever wondered what would happen if a riding mower ran over a baseball, this is what happens: The baseball loses. And, it flies up in the air and smashes your window!
So instead of my nice productive afternoon, I've spent the last couple of hours cleaning up broken glass. And "fixing" the window.
So now, please excuse me, because I think I'm going to go make the world's largest brownie with my 14 boxes of Pillsbury mix.
The end. 🙂








Not a good week. Karma for getting such great deals.
What a day/week!! Is it possible that you can just replace the glass instead of the whole window? We had a rock hit our window last year and was able to just get a pane of glass cut to the exact size for about $16.
Great idea! Add some free peanut butter to the mix and open one of those Sweet Moments while you wait for the brownies to cool. Let's hope for NO rain!
Sorry about what has been happening to you this week. I hope your neighbour is at least going to pay for the broken window.
that stinks... give him some brownies too so maybe he will fix the window!
Glad you still have your sense of humor through it all! Hope it all works out smoothly and that this marks the end of the bad stuff!
Brownies fixes everything! Brownies for dinner sounds like a good idea too!
Barter Healthy Choice soup to the window guy, plus wear something skimpy and low-cut. Can't hurt...might help 🙂
They say, problems come in a "set of three". So it looks like you had your set of three. Hopfully they are (problems) going to leave you now.
I thought i was having another Mon. But, you win!
BTW, chocolate solves everything!
