Yesterday Steve was able to fix the power out back!!!! Apparently whatever caused the GFCI outlet to trip also destroyed it. Thankfully we have a few of those laying around from when we built the addition so it was a simple matter of him replacing it with the new one. Now the pool filter is working, and so is my fountain.
My parents came over for dinner last evening. We had a wonderful time.
Today the in-laws left. I'm always sad after they go- we get along great and they are such a big help around the house.
We're under a Severe Thunderstorm watch until 9pm. I hope we get the rain since I planted some of the datura seed I traded for. Kept the majority of it until next spring. I also got caught up on the weeding, thankfully there wasn't much- only took 2 hours to weed all 10 of my beds. I still really need to mow the grass. After 3 days of rain it has really grown LOL! That will have to wait until Steve gets home from work though.

I will never complain about my 3 flower beds now. Its work but very satisfying to see them clean |

I bet it's a relief to get the electric working again. My hubby is only marginally adept at electric. I probably would have had to call someone out. I hope to get fountain before the end of summer, and I plan to get a solar one for that reason (lol). You know, you hear all the in-law jokes, and horror stories, but in my case (and it sounds like in your case too)they couldn't be further from the truth. Sometimes I enjoy visits with my in-laws more than with my own side of the family. |
