Around our home, I have to do three additional things just to get ready to do the one thing I originally intended.
Here's an example that happened yesterday. Every fall I take the water hose out of the hose caddy, and, blow out the hose caddy plumbing to insure it doesn't freeze and burst. Yesterday was the day I decided to put the hose back in the caddy. Simple, you might say.
- Had to fabricate a new hose that connects the caddy to the faucet. Had to search through all my pack-rat junk for just the right stuff.
- Had to dispose of half dozen big cardboard boxes that were tossed into my shop during the winter, and were blocking access to my tools and work bench.
- When I finished making up the connector hose, I discovered that I needed some hose washers. Now I gotta' go to the hardware store.
- While in route to the hardware store, I realize my pick-up is dangerously low on gas. Now I gotta' stop for gas.
This was not suppose to be complicated, nor, take too long. Ha! Every project I touch turns out the same way. :shootself:
