Bad Luck or Good Luck

Have you ever set out to do something and end up having to do a whole bunch of other things because of that one little thing you set out to do? Well yesterday, on my day off, I thought I would climb under the house and set out a couple of ant traps as the ants are bad this year. So off to Lowes to grab some tero traps and while I was there I figured I might as well get some formula to spray around the foundation too. So I get back home and spray ant killer around the foundation of the house and I figured that I might as well hook up the sprinkler while I go under the house to put out the traps. So I get the sprinkler set up and under the house I go, sure am glad there is like three feet of room under the house to stand, so while I'm under there I start setting out the traps and as I am making my way through the cob webs towards the front of the house I hear the water running from the sprinkler that I put out and as I look where the water line is for the outside water I see this spraying of water from where the pipe had a hole in it. I am not sure if it was bad luck or good luck as I would have never have noticed it was leaking unless I was under there with it running. I am not sure how long it has been like that but I am glad I seen it. So my little one job for the day ended up being a few more than I expected. I am just grateful that I was able to fix the leak without calling a plumber who would have charged me an arm and a leg.

    I am looking here at all of your posts, and just think, you always thought that you did not have any thoughts. Boy were you wrong! I can't hardly shut ya up now. You are always thinking and talking, I always thought that was my job in this relationship, to do the thinking and talking.
