How to fill a hole just to have a party...........  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity 3 years ago

It's simple.
Dig one.
Dump a truck in it.
Then get on the phone.
Beg, plead, cry, bribe, threaten.
Trust me, it works...........or it did for me.
Tomorrow the townsfolk will gather with baked goods, hot chocolate, one smart old guy with a few micky's up his sleeve, and I'll provide the coffee and brandy and party hats.
The dump truck I dumped is going to be liberated from the hole.
I have two farmers who have offered their services to chain the truck and drag it out of the hole with their tractors. They swear it will work as they've apparently had experience with similar probs in the muskeg that is the curse of Prairie springtime.
You gotta love a farmer! LOL
The price?
I have promised to be good natured about the jokes I will be the butt of until the next time I don't listen to my dog! LOL
What the hell. It's been a long hard winter and we all could use some laughter and a reason to party............

What would YOU make do if you could in exchange for getting me out of this mess?

Great job, Sparky!!!

Darn it all, I wanna come. My camera works so I can take before and after pictures to help you be good natured for those jokes that last a while.


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Come on down...just stay away from the edge of the hole ok? ROFL

Ahhh, I knew you would find a way. I figured I HAD to be some farmers, too. We can never say no to someone who is stuck. Why, just this winter, we have pulled at least a dozen people out of the ditch or the drifts on our road alone. That doesn't count the ones that we have pulled out on the way somewhere.


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

LOL. Yep, I called the farmers first and they all wanted to know if there'd be food and drink, so that's when I decided to make it a town event! ROFL Amazing what you can talk people suffering from cabin fever into! Just hope the weather holds. It's been pretty good so far this week............


myLot reputation of 73/100. AnnieOakley1 (2645)   ranked 33 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Not here, today has been more like a blizzard all day. And getting worse by the minute. They shut down the 400 Hwy this morning due to an accident.

The hubby had to clear a path for me to get to the barn with the bobcat. The snow was drifted in places clear above my big old insulated rubber farmer boots. LOL


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

OH, So it ended up in YOUR yard? LOL I saw the clouds coming last night and sent out my energy to have them pass right on over and head East! ROFL


myLot reputation of 73/100. AnnieOakley1 (2645)   ranked 33 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Well, shyte! So I have you to thank, eh?rasp

Thanks for nuthin', honey.angry

Woke up this morning and it is even worse. I can barely see the barn from the house. And the drifts are going to be worse now. See if I can get the hubby off the couch long enough to plow me a new trail. The one he made me yesterday, was gone in a matter of hours.


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

I'd apologize but I'm just so glad it passed us by! LOL I have a party today you know and can't have the wind making us all miserable.........might blow the tractors off course and then where would I be? ROFL
Turn that man of yours upside down, grab his feet and push a path through the snow with his head! LOL

Lucky you! You are coming out on the easy side. You gotta HUG those farmers' necks! You've been saved from a very expensive job if you did have to get a large tractor. But I'm still laughing! I would loved to have seen a picture of that job you did. lol Me? I've learned from you; never let you near my husband and his truck. wink


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Oh my, you've got me spitting green tea all over my screen! ROFL
Yep, Sparks and trucks are a dangerous mix! LOL


myLot reputation of 96/100. Barb42 (2794)   ranked 23 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

My husband laughed so hard when he got the visual of you doing the hand motions for the truck driver and he blindly let you roll him into the hole!!lol


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Your hubs sounds like he'd fit right in around here! LOL


myLot reputation of 96/100. Barb42 (2794)   ranked 23 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Here as in Mylot or Canada? happy As for Mylot, this is not his 'cup of tea'. He doesn't play around on the Internet like me. He orders off the Internet, reads things, but he'd never come on a forum like this. But he gets some good laughs when I tell him about some of the things we talk about. thumbup


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Actually at the time of typing that, I was thinking of my little town. LOL "here" as in home, you know?


myLot reputation of 96/100. Barb42 (2794)   ranked 23 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Well, now he might fit into your little town. I'm from a small town and we live in the country next door to where he was raised. Oh, not out in the sticks, but not a town. Most people here in this area own a little property and lots have farms, which we do, but we don't have cattle on it any longer. Just lots of property to keep clean. thumbup


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

We own four lots in our town. And now one of them has a lot of dirt on/in it to keep clean! ROFL

A party!!! I love a party. Ok, I am bringing the tortilla chips with a dip. The dip is cream cheese mixed with medium salsa or picante'. I will also bring a four-pack of fuzzy naval wine coolers, a case of coke and a small bottle of butter shots. Do I need to bring a shovel or a rake?? Is there going to be any work involved in this party??


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Oh please do come and bring all the goodies, but keep in mind that if you bring shovels, we'll have to put you to work.........................lol

Well daffy,
What a fine mess you've made. You sure have a way of coming out of these messes smelling like a rose. I've always picked up on your resourcefulness. Sounds like you live in quite a friendly little community. I've had the pleasure of living in a couple of small communities in my adult life. I really miss it. Now living in Orlando is far from a small community. Wish I was there to cheer on the work party. Brandy sounds like a nice addition. Have fun one and all.xoxoxo

Hey Louie! My little town has about 75 people in it that are all older than me, and I'm no spring duck! LOL But they're a good group and the surrounding farmers are the salt of the earth. The old Norman Rockwell values are alive and kicking here in my part of the Prairie, and I'm really pretty lucky they put up with my insanity! LOL
I'll have a nip of brandy tomorrow just for you ok? LOL

I would have you learn, dress accordingly and sing/perform all the songs from Funny Girl. You'd have to do it as closely like Barbra Streisand as possible. Hubs could be Nickie Arnstein, if you wanted, but it would be mainly a solo.


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

surrenderlol
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm jerz? I'm really really glad you're not one of my farmers! ROFL


myLot reputation of 94/100. jerzgirl (3245)   ranked 9 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Por quois? Do I detect a wee bit of performance anxiety??? whistle

I'd allow you to bring your own musical accompaniment.


myLot reputation of 94/100. jerzgirl (3245)   ranked 9 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

People......people who need people......are the luckiest people....in the world!!


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Jerz, I'm the one whose children cried their little hearts out in pain when I sang them lullaby's as babies!
And for the record La Streisand is my all time favorite singer. I'm am in awe of her and would cut out my tongue before I dared to sing one of her songs out loud!
Please tell me you don't plan to visit me soon...............LOL Summer would be good.....


myLot reputation of 94/100. jerzgirl (3245)   ranked 9 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

She is mine as well. I LOVE that movie and thought that since you are a "people who needs people", it would be a perfect payback. Plus, like you said, a day to laugh. rasp

And, are you saying you would NOT welcome a visit from me in the very near future??


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Jerz, I would welcome a visit from you ANYTIME, but only if you didn't make me sing. You'd never visit again, because you'd be blind, deaf and dumb! ROFL


myLot reputation of 94/100. jerzgirl (3245)   ranked 9 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Well, good, then. It's set.

And, besides - I don't think there's anyone anywhere who could MAKE you DO anything!

Well I have the stuff to make a couple of choclate cakes and a batch of brownies. I vote for the brownies myself. But the cakes are just as good with an icing made with powdered sugar and butter...making me hungry for some cake now...lol


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

I vote for the brownies too, but in a pinch cake made with brandy does about the same thing and doesn't make me sleepy! LOL Passing you the milk to go with your cake..........


myLot reputation of 98/100. moondancer (4017)   ranked 15 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

We can give the cake to others that wish to have that. I prefer the brownies too, thank you for the milk here have a couple of brownies...ummm ummm this is good.

Ha ha ha ha ha! I love that like, knitting instruction you have there... Dig one, dump a truck in it! What a wheeze!!!!lol

Awww, it's great that your neighbourhood are coming to your rescue. How sweet is that? The farmers are funny too... I mean, why ask? lol. I'm a firm believer that whatever you give out comes back threefold my friend, so I wouldn't ask for anything in exchange, apart from perhaps a nice hot cup of soup at this time of the year.

Brightest Blessings.


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

The party is this afternoon..........and I'm sure I'll be on the receiving end of many a 'threefold' joke! LOL But it's a great excuse to get my seniors out of their houses and having some fun, so it's all good. I wonder if they'll let me direct the farmers towing?.............nah, probably not! ROFL


myLot reputation of 98/100. Darkwing (7548)  3 years ago

It's worth a try, my friend. Should make for good fun and a few jokes on-site, toboot! ha ha ha!


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Every joke had me downing a shot of brandy.........hic! LOL


myLot reputation of 98/100. Darkwing (7548)  3 years ago

I like brandy... couldn't you pass some under the table? lol


myLot reputation of 84/100. sparkofinsanity (3868)   ranked 4 out of 199 in sparkofinsanity  3 years ago

Hmmm? GOD does not have a sense of humor when it comes to overindulging...
