designated wet person........

ok, so we went up to mother's yard after supper, to see what scw had planted after supper, and to see what damage the water company had done in repairing their line........there had been a big wet sink in my mom's yard, and since it did not show up on her bill, it had to be the water company's problem.......well. i stoood by the big hole long enough that my mother's neighbor...(and my neighbor) came out to ask about why i was standing there with a hose.......now,. gentle readers....i have never met this neighbor, he is like the author of catcher in the rye......and he stayed long enough to ascertain that the water problem would not be assigned to his bill........and then he was gone......anyway....we re-seeded my mother's yard where the water company fixed her leak, then went on down to our yard to re-seed our own bare spots.....and that is when calamity struck......the nozzle burst off of our hose.......leaving me a sopping mess..........and a continued mess....as we were not done with our bare spots....and lord knows we do not stop until we are done...........................i put down that nozzle at the first opportunity...................and left it to god's grace........or the partner who also knows how to shut off the water.....................
