I Have No Book
~By Sue~

He was always putting off until tomorrow
The things he could have done that day
Then he just up and left me here
These things I can not do okay

The lawnmower just stopped running
The septic tank in bad need of cleaning
The kitchen drawer just fell all apart
Just what on earth was he thinking

If I should take the lawnmower apart
I just may not get it back together
To clean the septic tank I have no clue
I just need a place that is much better

A handiman I do not have around
To fix the things that are broken
Nor a manual to show me how
To fix the things always breaken

My days are filled with frustration
It seems everything is piling on me
I have no book to show me how
To fix either one of these things

Your local library will carry the books you need and the hardware store everything else.

Yeah, sometimes things really do have a way of piling up on a person, huh? Much enjoyed!

Sue, this must be so hard. I too am not good with the fix it stuff so I can sure relate to how frustrated you are feeling.

I'll bet there must be some self-help books that could show you how to do some of the things. As for the lawn mower, hmmm...go to Sears and charge a new one to him. :-)

Hugs, Marti

Every now and then take a good look at something not made
with hands -- a mountain, a star, the power of the ocean.

(big hugggsssssss) Yes, follow Michael and Marti's advice for they are so very right and then try and find a handyman to help you in case you don't understand all the instructions! (sigh) This is very well-expressed, sweet friend, hope all works out for you, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
