I finally got some of the bulbs planted that I was supposed to put in ages ago. If they don't flower this year I will always have them next year. However, HERE IS WHAT I WANT YOU TO PICTURE:
|
Weather in the upper 80s.
|
This 73 year old pudgy lady with white hair, busy in her front yard finishing up planting bulbs around her tree and sweating my ### off.
|
I love digging in the dirt! |
Add to that muddy white baggy shorts and a muddy red sleeveless shirt
(with my fatty dorsal biceps flapping in the wind).
Now picture one of those sprinkler that go
chk...chk...chk...chk back and forth
(come on, say it, this story cries out for sound effects). And, see in your minds eye the finale which is me setting up this type of sprinkler.
|
This was the best clip art I could find. Kinda resembles me. |
Next, incorporate into this picture this sweaty, mud clad, chunky senior citizen trying to jump over the spray as it comes swacking around
(you see it was going all the way around not back and forth). Try a I might, I could not manage to accomplish (1) stopping the thing from circling around or (2) jumping over the spray as it came my way.
When I started drawing a crowd I decided to put another type of sprinkler head on the hose and slip (literally) into my house.
|
The man next door. |
|
The kid across the street. |
|
Even my dogs were laughing! |
