Description


Here is a quick one. I have been off for the last little bit do to some emergency repairs on the house. We sprung a leak in our master bath and the flooring was made from a material a particle board that did not react well to the water. So my bath tub came real close to falling through the floor. It didn't WHEW! So for the last 4 days I have been the handyman doing repairs, then going to work. So the repairs took a little longer than they normally would. But here I am and I will try to catch up on my comments to everyone. So to the point! I found this flower on the side of the road so I stopped and took some pics (actually our roadways are lined with these guys). Hope you like and thanks for the views and comments!

I once had a very old wood frame house on blocks that had a claw-foot tub in it. There was a leak under the house and the moisture worked on the flooring for years before we knew there was standing water under the house, and, well...we had the same challenge. Replace the flooring and fix the leak before that big old tub dropped into the mud below. :-) Very bright and happy flower you have here. Makes me want to smile.

Oh yeah its all been taken care of. We bought this house (mobile home) for the land it sits on. We are going to build the house we want in the next year or two. I have yet to figure out why they put particle board (not water friendly) in a bathroom or a laundry room. As soon as this stuff gets wet it expands and then starts to fall apart. The problem is solved now, I went back with treated plywood that is made to take water abuse. The rest of the house will rot down around it before this stuff does. Now I can get to the next project (tiling the bathroom floor). Thanks for all the kind comments!
