Waaah! you whiney baby!!! I've had this more times than I can count (remember, a musician can only count to 4!! LOL) Don't you just love it when you have one of the 1% have a huge party, schedule a tuning with you, to get there while everything is being set up, the leaf blower just happens to be right outside the window where you're working, people yelling and directing, etc, etc,.....Those rich folk will never get it!! (except a few of my old clients, but that's what they do for a living, so they set up quiet time, get me a latte and leave me alone for a couple hours! Ahhhh Bless them! As far as leafs....we are on a north/south oriented street. Sooo, we just rake up other leafs from the neighbor next door! It's windy in Nebraska!! Since mine are oaks, my neighbor to the north will be raking into December!!! LOLOL!! I'll be done in 2 weeks! ha ha ha! some folks just don't get it, eh? Good luck with that, Joe.

Ah, last week was a wonderful thang....NOT! It all started with neighbor,of a client, intent on ridding the world of leaves with his trusty Leaf Blower! Yikes! An hour and a half later, he succeeded to his satisfaction, (of course most of the leaves were now on my vehicle and my client's yard! GRRRR! Don'tcha just loveit!<G> Then....., the next client had just had the rugs shampooed and the piano was 20+ cents sharp! Yikes! Then......, The next client had moved the piano into a different area of the house, forgot to plug the Dampp Chaser back in, so the piano was 20 cents sharp! Oh, the sheer joy of it all! Bottom line: There wasn't one for that day! I hope that's the end of that gremlin for a long time.<G> Back to being a Shop Rat...at least, there, I can, somewhat control what will happen....er....maybe.<G> Happy Monday, (the aftermath of the Daylight Savings Time! Still haven't saved a darned minute for myself!<G>) Joe Joe Garrett, R.P.T. Captain of the Tool Police Squares R I -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
