Friday JohnKu – AKA – TGIF

~ John W. Howell

Another Friday to celebrate. Woo Woo. My celebration is for a week well spent doing catch-up on my “work around the house” chore list. I have often commented that living by the Gulf is like being on a boat. There are a number of things that have to be constantly maintained. Little stuff like door locks, door bells, lamps, fixtures, vinyl fence, and even siding.

Since I have finished book three of the John J. Cannon trilogy and am just waiting to send to the editor, I have a little free time each day. Having time will be a temporary situation since my next book is calling for an edit. Yes, the first draft is done, but I’m sure it is a big mess and will need more work.

So, I got out the power sprayer and went to work spraying everything that would tolerate water. That included the whole exterior of the house and all the vinyl railings and fence. I must say the house looks better not covered in salt and sand.

I also put lubricant in all the locks and managed to change out some vent covers which had deteriorated as a result of the sun.  In addition, I reconditioned the doorbell (which is an annual affair)

All in all a productive time. I expect my wife will be shocked upon her return from Austin where she has been helping youngest daughter move. Today’s JohnKu talks about doing some things you don’t want to do.

Your daily conscience,

On the refrigerator…

For what seems like months.

        2. Wasn’t sure. The person just said they had an accident and the pet was okay. My best guess is that they were using it and the animal ran in the way of the blast. If it was a stupid human trick, I think the person would have been out of jail.

  3. LOL. Love it. It was even more amusing to me because it took a second for the conscience on the refrigerator to sink in. You’re a crafty one, John. 😉
    Sounds like your plate overfloweth as usual. Thanks for taking time for this. Mega hugs.

  4. Geesh, I am feeling incredibly lazy as I sit here sipping on my coffee this morning, reading away. I had better get busy!

    P.S. Your wife may be away more often if she comes home to a spotless home each time she returns!

  7. John, you are so productive, even you are not writing! It has to be a good feeling to get those chores out of the way, at least until they need to be done again 😉 You deserve an extra tall margarita. Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
