Uh-oh

     If only the truck had been a LITTLE smaller.

yard project

     Picture any of the “I Love Lucy” episodes when Lucy is trying to explain something- after the fact- to Ricky.

     That’s pretty much my world today (and I love it).

****************************************

Update:  Apparently you can even have memory loss about limestone size. Who knew?  This LARGE batch was larger in size than the other that is already in place.

I can-

A.  Whack it with a hatchet and make it smaller.

B.  Never wear my contacts/glasses when I am near the patio.

C.  Discuss this dilemma with my husband.

Why do all men have the same expressions. Are they born with them or do they learn that somewhere. Good luck, I know it will be beautiful when it's finished. Hugs, Marty

What works best for me is timing, I always try to bring it up at the best possible time...guess you didn't have that luxury? Can you pray about gravel? LOL

Wow! That is a big truck! It's going to look so good when you get it finished though. I was catching up with your posts this morning. Your writer's block posts are better than my best day.
