We had our back wall repointed which meant first having the old cement dug out using disc cutters.  They cut through our lightning rod line - not a problem except they were disinclined to repair it till prodded and we do get a lot of lightning.

Then, one day, OH and I were tidying up the barn which will one day be part of the house and he started sawing through an "untidy" coil of cable.   It's only the three phase extension wire already laid in place for the next phase of renovation.  It's going to cost a pretty penny to replace or re-lay or re-route.

So quick to forget where things are placed!

I've been surreptitiously baking Swedish tortes for a surprise birthday dinner party for my husband.
The torte layers with their crisp meringue tops were carefully ziplock-bagged and set in the freezer.
Not even an hour later,  I threw in a 5-lb bag of frozen tomatoes without thinking ::)
