Okay, quoting myself again.

I am laughing so hard watching this clip and picturing sunny. hahaoheohaoha! uh, hoahoehaoha! whew. hoahohaohaoha!
My, you have quite the evil streak in there. (Although it is kinda funny thinking about the vision. And then her relatives rolling their eyes saying to each other... On no! I don't believe it. I told you it was a bad idea from the get-go. :))

Oh Sunny, you have no idea how much I needed that story this morning. ( still no net and this 3G is iffy) Whackers are dangerous, but that picture was priceless. Thankful you are OK. Find a family member or teen to finish up the job. Love and green lights!!

Hi Spidey! Hope your connectivity is back to speed soon.
No worries about my trip with the weedeater.....it happened years ago when I was still in my 20s. My clumsy history is the reason that my family has laughed for so many years.....and also the reason I'm not allowed to have any real power tools today. :biggrin2:
Glad I could give you a chuckle today. ♥

The eye rolling thing happens often.....and then the head shaking.

It's been this way as long as I can remember. When I was twelve, we were doing something, and my brother had just called me clumsy....to my face. I was shocked, so I went to tell Mom.....

Me: Mom! Mark said I'm clumsy
Mom: Well, you are

My hubby keeps trying to teach me how to use power tools. I can just about handle a power drill, with supervision. I've handled a few others over the years with a fair amount of success, but I try to stay away from anything that needs an extension cord to operate. Not that I'm clumsy; that's not my problem at all. I'm overly cautious, sure, but even that isn't what makes me turn white as a sheet and back away when that awful, motor driven sound rips through the air.
No, my problem with power tools is that I'm utterly terrified of them. It's a good thing the mister is a handy man, or the house would slowly fall down around my ears....
