Wednesday I pressure washed the 2 tier deck, let it dry on Thur., started to
stain it this a.m. very early, and my sprayer was only working half !@#, so
I spray a few feet and then using a 3" brush, brush it in, in 80+ degrees
this is not fun being down on all 4, after 2 hours I think i'll take a
break, the door opens and she says, it looks just great, I think you can
finish it in another hour, door closes, another hour the top deck is 90%
done, lets rest, door opens, I'm fixing you a nice big "Prime Rib" for
lunch/dinner, remember how you hate to quit in the middle of a big job,
never seem to get back in the goove, looks great (those are my lines, handed
down for generations for men, and she's using them against me), another 2
hours and I'm 75% finished, the heat is too much, door opens, your "Prime
Rib" looks great, what time you think you'll be finished, "The hell with the
Prime Rib, how about a bologna sandwich, I quit for the day, wash-up go
inside, on the kitchen table is a grilled cheese on rye, Debra what the H@#$
is this, oh that's fondue, your rib will be finished when the deck is
finished, This women has the funniest sense of humour, I just sat at the
table laughing so hard I was almost in tears, as she left I asked if she had
any intentions of fixing me a rib, "I'll look at the store this evening to
see if they have any. Have a nice day. She's hard to get around, always 2
steps ahead.
Thanks for letting me share this funny with you. "FT"
