My last visitor put aside $70 worth of items and is supposed to pick them up tomorrow!!! I hope he shows up. If not, I had a great time talking to him and his wife.
Notice the red ball on the stand (the lowest one in the front)...
When I decided to call it a day and was bringing stuff into the garage, somehow or other, I knocked over the stand with the red ball. OMG...my driveway is steep and ends on a BUSY street and there's a ball rolling down it with no obstructions in its way!!! I went after it and the first time I touched it I couldn't grab onto it. I had horrible images of it reaching the street and hitting or rolling under a car and all kinds of frightening things happening. I managed to grab onto it before that happened and I'm so relieved. There was some damage to the ball so I have a small repair job to do. I can't begin to imagine what it would look like after colliding with a vehicle.
Then I went inside and found my poor dog stuck on the wood floors in the living room and not able to get his footing to get up. I have no idea how long he was stuck like that. I almost cried when I saw him. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body and forgave me as soon as I helped him up and let him outside so he could go potty. That's why I have throw rugs throughout the house since I've taken up most of the carpet. He doesn't usually go into the living room so I don't know what happened. But all is well now.
What a way to end a pretty boring day.

If that ball had rolled down the drive way there would be no way for me to catch it. I would probably be turning in an insurance claim for damages to someones car or cars. :( Glad you are in such good shape. I hope that guy comes back with the money for that stuff.
ReplyDeletePoor dog, glad he is OK.
Sounds like you had an interesting day. Sort of a Keystone Kops thing chasing the ball down the street.
ReplyDeletePoor old guy! He was such a good boy for not having an accident. He may have gone into the living room because he heard people outside and he wanted to know what was going on.
ReplyDeleteunfortunately, i am stuck in Central Oregon for the winter...eekk...the move & getting the house set up rather ruined me financially :-(
