I always wanted to be somebody. I guess I should have been more specific.

An irony: duct tape should not be used on ducts, though it is useful for other purposes.

You don't believe this? See: https://servicechampions.com/why-duc...eal-air-ducts/

Two turtles went into a bar and ordered whiskey. One turtle asked the bartender if whiskey would make him faster. The bartender said "no, but it will make you come out of your shell."

some how i can laugh at this still

the house where i am supposed to be 'couch-surfing is under repair from water damage to the roof , in 2016 partly caused by faulty repairs made in 2014

so far after 3 years since the pivotal rain event rooms complete ( fit to move the furniture back into ) equals ZERO , the house has been rewired 3 times completely , the tile flooring replaced TWiCE ( the entire house has ceramic floors ) the bathroom is being torn up for the 4th time in an attempt to make it waterproof , most of the internal walls have been replaced ( at least once ), all the ceilings has been replaced ( some of that 3 times ) the kitchen bench-top is on version 4 ( one arrived broken , one arrived the wrong size , and one broken during the ceiling repair ....

the loo won't be installed until AFTER the painters and other workers are finished ( the plumber is trying to avoid a disaster there .. and who could blame him )

things to do finish the shower ( hopefully before 2030 ) paint 100% of the walls ( AGAIN ) and most of the ceiling check for new broken floor tiles , install the kitchen , shower and toilet plumbing ... put the lock on the back door and toilet door , clean and vacuum the house and move in the furniture ( which gas been sitting in shipping containers for about 3 years


sigh , bound to be something we have missed , the good thing is it is only a single storey house with no stairs ( it could have been worse ... but it DOES have a tile roof , [ wink ] )
