Every morning when the work crew shows up?
.

.
My husband has to chat.
I truly believe the worst torture imaginable for this man would be to lock him in a room by himself with no one to talk to.
.

.
When conversation halted…. fabric was laid, bad dirt was removed and better dirt was delivered.
.
.
It’s a good thing our neighbors are morning people and far away, because things be noisy up in here.
.

.
Dirt was delivered.
.

.
Dirt was spread.
.

.
And about mid day?
Things started to go wrong.
I noticed it got quiet and figured there had to be a reason.
.

.
While I’m no expert on heavy machinery, something looked a little off here … even to me.
.

.
Definitely an oh sh*t moment.
One broken hydraulic hose brought work to a standstill.
.
dirt?

Well it’s always something isn’t it. Because otherwise we’d all be living in Utopia. 😉

The hydraulic belt did not help things move along, but it would seem that your Marine was equally adept at bringing work to a “standstill”. Maybe just a different kind of leak, but the end result was the same. Of course, for $20k, he bought himself the right to jibber jabber.

As long as we’re not paying them by the hour… I suppose he can chat to his heart’s content.

At least it was a hose – easier fix than other parts.

Oh no! I’m going to assume the mess is cleaned up and beautiful by now and the hydraulic doohickey is fixed and out of your life! 🙂 Mona

Does the crew seem to enjoy conversing with your husband? What do they talk about?

They start out talking about the job, but with my husband …. it can go anywhere.

That machine looks like it’s saying: OOUUUUCCCCHHHH!!
I was laughing at your idea of torturing your husband. LOL. We both married Chatty Kathy’s. Or Chatty Carls?
