Oh yes I can.

This morning I was eye balling my wheel barrow set up. Not to sound arrogant but I know I'm not dumb so why was I being intimidated by this? I opened the box and guess what? There was only about 20 pieces not a zillion. All the screws had the washer, lock washer and hex nut already on so I didn't have to chase them down. I set out all the pieces and made sure they were all there. I was a little confused as the paper work was calling the wheel (tire) a "screw, 8mm x 100mm" It took me about 10 seconds to figure that that was incorrect.

I started at 10am and had it all done and screwed tight by 11.15am. That was even had a potty break for Abby. She does not like the wheel barrow. Not sure why. When I started to put stuff together she slunk of the couch and gave the wheel barrow a worried look and went into the bedroom. Maybe she thinks the wheel barrow is the vacuum's cousin? I swear that I have never ever chased Abby with the vacuum nor have I chased her with the wheel barrow.


I took the wheel barrow out for a spin in the yard. I like it! It will work much better then the kiddie wading pool.

    ha ha ha (evil laugh) but you don't know who else may have chased her with a kiddie wading pool or a wheel barrow....maybe when she was visiting her cousins? I jokes. We never teased her.....much.

    I meant vaccuum. Somehow the kiddie wading pool stuck on my mind. We don't even have one of those. Come to think of it, I don't think we have a wheel barrow either. Oh well. I'm sure we've teased her with something! Yes, that's it! The vaccuum.

    You did it. I was without a wheel barrow for awhile, cause the tire, oops - wheel, got a hole in it and we didn't get a new one for years. I drug the kids radio flyer wagon around and used that and it worked ok, you just couldn't put much in it. But now K got me another wheel, ya. I don't know what to do with all the room.
