What REALLY grinds your gears?

Anything with a hose or cord, just fighting them when trying to do the job then having to rewind them back up. I suck at winding up any hose; so annoying.

The best is when it gets dirty and your hands/shirt become a mess.

Seriously

More frustrating is you need to get some place with a cord/hose and its 10 feet away, said hose /cord goes 9.5 feet because its to short or snagged on something.

I am sure my my neighbors have had some laughs seeing a 48 year old have a full on tantrums over cords/hoses.

This is how it’s going housewise this year:

April: Hot water heater small leak, had to replace install $1300
June: lawnmower started blowing oil at both end, fixed it for about a month…had to buy new one $450
July: Capacitor on my air pump when out. It was like camping in my house mid July for 30 hours $325
August: motherboard went out on Disherwasher…got the new one delivered this past week $475
September: storm fried my modem and cable box not working

I’ve bout had it

I have put in this summer between home and auto A/C repairs around $2k.

A/C is such such a fragile “necessity “ that depends on so many moving parts to keep it going, it’s flipping annoying.

Really nothing worse than car/truck issues, outside of an std.

Beer shits! That is all.

Anyone else going to a picnic starting at 1:30 pm on Sunday, September 12th for their MIL birthday?


Yeah .. fun times.

Sitting at the dinner table a few weeks ago, my lady said "I have something to tell you and I dont know how ..". I make a few jokes like "youre actually a dude post transition?" or "youre a secret spy?" ...

I could see it was serious.

I said "Its not about Sunday September 12th is it? You didnt sign us up for anything on the first game of the fucking season?"


After a few seconds I realized, you cant get out of this so theres no need to get mad or pout because then you dont get credit .. so I said, after a bit .. I dont think my lady or daughter took a breath while I processed what she told me, everything was super quiet and no one moved ... I said 'Its cool. What can you do?"

Watch it on your phone.

Watch it on your phone.

I talk a lot and have social expectations so kinda tuning out isnt an option. besides I want to immerse myself in the glory of week 1.

I did the math, I should be home by no later than 5:30. take 30 mins to handle any loose family obligations and prep time ..

6 pm I should be on couch, cold beer in hand. goal is to start the SNF game by 9 ish.
