My Stains
As an old guy, I alwys seem to get stains on my shirts (I'm sure some of you know about that). Yesterday I climbed up my power pole to fill a couple of wood pecker holes with foam. Later my wife commented on my shirt stains, and I answered back with a comment related to my wood pecker hole filling. So she wrote a small poem about it later on..
"His wardrobe’s full of mystery spots, From barbecue to coffee blots. He wears them all without a care— There’s jelly where the pockets are. I told him kindly all his clothes are stained He nodded once—completely unashamed. “I’m not competing in a fashion show while spraying foam in a woodpecker hole.” He says the strangest funny things, And I join him in all the laughter he brings And every stain, each shirt askew— Just makes him more my sweetened view."

She's a keeper ! Well done 👏 . Two weeks ago I added another garden hose spigot to the house . Ran some CPVC pipe using yellow glue . Seems I got as much on my tee shirt as the fittings
I wear it as a badge of honor
