I BOUGHT MYSELF AN ELECTRIC DRILL- A REAL ONE.. FAIRLY LIGHTWEIGHT- BUT RECHARGE BATTERY- AND I BOUGHT THAT CUTE LITTLE PACK OF "BITS"-- AND FOR GOOD LUCK A PACK OF NUT DRIVERS- AND WHY NOT THE DOOR KNOB HOLE DRILLER PACK...ALL IN A LITTLE RED SACHELL-- FINALLY I COULD GRAB IT AND FIX ALOT OF STUFF HERE IN THE HOUSE WITHOUT RUNNING TO THE TOOL SHED..
I HUNG THE SACHELL NEXT TO MY DESK THING- ALL WAS IN ORDER.... EXCEPT.....
I THINK THE PROBLEM WAS,..... IT CAME WITH A SECOND BATTERY--- 18 WHATEVERS--- AND CHARGER.. WELL THAT HAD TO BE ON MY DESK TOP... I COULD MANAGE THAT... EXCEPT...
ONE OF THE DRILLS FROM THE TOOL SHED FOUND IT'S WAY TO THE HOUSE - AND IT HAS A 20 WHATEVER THAT LOOKS LIKE TEH 18 WHATEVER OF MY DRILL-- TEH 20 WHATEVER BATTERY WENT DEAD..AND SOMEONE KNEW THAT MY 18 WHATEVER BATTERY LOOKED LIKE TEH 20 WHATEVER SO THEY GRABBED IT AND LEFT ME THE 20 WHICH ALMOST FIT THE 18 CHARGER EXCEPT NOT REALLY.
SO THE 20 DRILL WITH MY 18 BATTERY JUST DIDN'T WORK RIGHT - SO SOMEONE TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND TRIED TO CHARTGE MY 18 WHATEVER BATTERY ON THE SHOP'S 20 WHATEVER CHARGER...
THAT IS WHEN THE CONFUSION REALLY STARTED...
SOMEONE NOTICED TEH YELLOW SABRE SAW HAD THE SAME BATTERY AS THE 20 DRILL AND KNEW THAT THE EXTRA 20 BAattery was up on my desk- SO TO SAVE FOOTSTEPS, THEY TOOK THE 20 CHARGER AND SABRE SAW TO MY DESK... JUST TO SAVE TIME... I WILL JUST LIST WHAT IS NOW COVERING MY DESK....ONLY BECAUSE IT IS SOMEWHAT INDICATIVE OF LIFE AT CRAZY ACRES....
18 W DRILL / BATTERY(RED)
20 W DRILL/BATTERY ( RED)
18 W SABRESAW / BATTERY (YELLOW)
BLACK AND DECKER TINY SKILL SAW / BATTERIES THAT DON'T MATCH ANYTHING ELSE
18 CHARGER ( YELLOW NO BATTERY )
18 CHARGER / RED BATTERY
20 CHARGER/RED BATTERY
18 YELLOW FLASHLIGHT ( NO BATTERY)
AND -- WITH CORD-----A WONDERFUL DREMEL 4" SKILL SAW WHICH HAS BLATES TO CUT METAL AND EVRYTHING WITHOTU THE BATTERY IT IS LIGHT ENOUGH TO HANDLE !! LOVE IT !
probably all those rechargeabloes are not charged because they aren't plugged in for lack of a power strip...
ADD TO THAT MY CELL PHONE WAS PLUGGED IN ALL NIGHT WITH A NEW BATTERY- AND IT STILL Has only one "bar" charge.
hence my defeatist attitude today. i have struggled with that #$%^&*(&^%$ phone for months-- i am making progress tho-- now when i call someone it actually says carlene and not university of mass
******
NOW IT IS ABOUT THAT "DESK" ON WHICH ALL THAT STUFF IS SITTING..
IT IS OLD.. MY FATHER- BORN IN 1900 MADE IT AS PART OF HIS HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION.- I AM SURE YOU KNOW WHERE ALL THIS IS GOING...... THAT DESK IS STRONG STURDY - IT WOOLD NOT DREAM OF WOBBLING - COUPLE PEOPLE CAN STAND OR SIT ON IT... NO PROBLEM... MUST HAVE BEEN MADE 1915 ISH...
HOW FAR DOWN HILL HAVE WE GONE SINCE THEN???TODAY I WILL ASK ALOT OF PEOPLE "WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ADZ AND AN AWL- AND I GUARENTEE THEY WILL NOT REACH INTO THERI MEMORY, BUT FOR THEIR PHONE. THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE A SCRABBLE PLAYER WOULD AT LEAST HAVE HEARD THE WORD....
HOWEVER EVERY PERSON WHO BOUGHT ONE OF OUR HARNESS- COULD USE AN AWL TO MAKE ONE "STITCH TO HOLE THE EXTRA FLAP IN PLACE TIL IT NEEDS ADJUSTING AGAIN...
I SHOULD NOT BE CASTING ASPARAGUS AT TEH YOUNGER GENERATION.. AFTER ALL.. THEY CAN MAKE THEIR PHONES WORK....
***************
IF ANYONE HAS TIME...... I THOUGHT I REALLY HAD A CHANCE BECAUSE OF THE PICTURE OF ME HELPING BELLA AND GEORGE AT THE BEGINNING... BUT LINDA SAID THEY WOULD NOT ALLOW PICTURES... AND THAT PICTURE MIGHT HAVE GIVEN US AN EDGE AT GETTING $10,000.
YOU WOULD HAVE TO DO IT TODAY AND TOMORROW...
WE STILL HAVE THE TIAA.COM ONE WHICH IS ABOUT THE SAME... DUE JUNE 1
