I'd have no luck at all now let's finish the song together

Gloom, Despair, and Agony on Me

now a few of you know that it's been a rough couple of days for me.....

it's now getting to the point where I have to laugh or I'd be crying cry The grass needed mowing, and there's no teenage son around (at his girlfriend's house!) so I decide to go ahead and cut it. Mower seems to have trouble starting and stalls after a few seconds. Several times. Many more times. Finally, I'm guessing the "good gas" made it into the system and I'm able to cut. The Front Wheel falls off! so I'm wandering around the yard holding the wheel and looking for the nut, when the irony of the situation hits me: a nut, looking for a nut.

You don't need to drive them, they work on their own. Wink *
