Day 294

His name is Handyman Negry.  Or maybe Handyman Pegry.  Or Handyman Legry.  Whatever his name is, he thought he could fix it with duct tape.  Oh no he could not.

Grateful for Handyman

Duct tape will fix most things.  It won't fix things perfectly, but it will fix things.  Today, Dad was told to go put the wreath up.  Well the wreath, apparently, was broken.  So Grampie tries and tries to hang the wreath with Rylee's help.  Then the two of them come inside, and Grampie sits down at the table after messing with it outisde for about 15 minutes.  He asked Rylee to get the duct tape on his workbench.
Mistake 1.
Don't ask your granddaughter to go get duct tape with Grammie in the room
Mistake 2.
Trying to fix something with duct tape.
Mistake 3.
Going outside with duct tape in hand, and granddaughter at his side.
Mistake 4.
Not putting noise cancelling ear phones on so you don't hear Grammie's commentary from inside.
It went something like this:

"I know.  Why don't you just duct tape the LIGHTS to the house?  Or duct tape the front door?  Or duct tape a ripped screen like that one on Wellons Drive you duct taped the shit out of....remember that....??? That was good.  I remember that.  All the neighbors on Wellons remember THAT."

A one defeated Grampie tries not to laugh, and throws the wreath in the garbage...and has to face Grammie...who is LAUGHING HER ASS OFF IN THE KITCHEN.
Followed by a one Grampie who tries not to laugh, but does. :)
