    Next, she’ll be visiting a website called Clowns.com that lets people hire clowns, magicians, and more for birthday parties. And the site does exist.

    There’s always something more you can do or add to it.

    Mrs and her brother just reached 43 on the 18th. Friday she called me at work and told me the washer quit. It has had a history of popping the breaker, so she went out to check it. Reset and it popped again, and would not stay set. Bad news. I came home and checked, tried a different outlet. Didn’t pop the breaker but washer would not work. Ran a quick diagnosis check and found error code “A60 – Communication Fault with control board” OK then. Still under warranty so service call today. Fixing part for her dinner Sat. She had a pot of water on the stove to boil. It boiled over and shorted out the gas stove. The red LED was showing that it as still energized but no igniter function. I took everything apart in a rush, shocked the hec out of me. Removed drawer to unplug stove started the air compressor and blew every thing dry. Reassembled and everything worked. Off to airshow with 9YO son. Back at 11:30 and helped Mrs and friend finish the final preps for her party. Sat all was good, it was supposed to be at the park, but go trained out so party was moved to club house at friends apartment complex. Entry door is ve3ry heavy. And closes very fast. Mrs took on in the face. She has a bruise on both sides of her nose, and that spot under your nose and a split lip. No black eyes, at least not showing yet. Calm and relaxed. Not this last weekend! (Yes she still had a great birthday. Brother was somewhere in Ohio. He’s a long haul trucker on his first trip since last Feb when his rig was sidelined during one of the many ice and heavy windstorms)

    It’s like painting. It never stops, there’s always just one more thing to paint.

    I can’t believe how extravagant kids parties ( some ) have become.

    Who’s going to blow up the balloon arch? (Somehow that doesn’t sound right.)

    There’s always something else.
