Haha!
Reminds me of the night took my step latter and tried to do an inventory of what dishes the previous residents had left in the cabinets over the stove. And did- but not after knocking a large Pyrex storage bowl and lid to the tile floor where it see shattered leaving chunks of glass and glass shards all over the floor, under the stove and refrigerator, into the hallway, and into the dining room.
Broom.
Dustpan.
The glass shards had to be washed out of the broom and off of the dustpan.
Vacuum.
The floor attachment.
The hose with no attachment.
Spray cleaner bottle with vinegar and water.
Paper towels.
An unexpected time sink of 1 1/2 hours of working furiously.
Not much one for getting glass splinters (or wood) if I can help it.
Not fun.
Inventory:
Junk + 1 Pyrex type bowl with no lid, opaque brown color, Made in Mexico, probably during '70's. Very interesting. I kept it.
My stove isn't staying on the wrong time, but I still haven't done it.
Might have by now if the shower spray assembly didn't blow a gasket and proceed to damage my ceiling and floor my bathroom every time I took a shower for four days.
Other bathroom (shower over bathtub) needs a plumber.
Bought part. Fixed ceiling with a fan running all day pointed at it. Aluminum foil and duct tape. Fixed assembly.
Seven hours work total.
I could live without anything like this happening again soon.
It seems like such a small thing to accomplish.
But in truth there is so much house work, so many cleaning projects, so many deep cleaning projects, so many organization projects, that there's always something.
They'll be a moment when I decide to do it and I'll do it then.
