I certainly hope that your Fourth of July is filled with fishing at your local fishin’ hole, or at the very least relaxing in your backyard.
Many a time though, whenever a three day weekend comes around, it seems that there’s a honey-do list with some BIG things on it – just waiting for those three free days.
So whatta ya do? You pull on your grungy old Wolverine Work Boots, put on your work around the house jeans and an old tee-shirt and get to gathering the supplies you need to ‘fix’ whatever’s broken ‘this’ time.
Invariably, you’ll need a part that you don’t have at home. It’s a law, I think, you will need something you don’t have at home, something you can’t Macguyver, which will entail a trip down to the Ace Hardware Superstore.
Thank goodness they have great hours. Last time we installed a seemingly simple hot water heater, it became quickly apparent that we need just one little piece of pvc. Something not in any of our spare parts buckets which caused us to make a last minute run down to the store for some of their Discount Plumbing Supplies.
Having a hardware store nearby is a lifesaver! And a gas saver, and a time saver. Hopefully you’ll knock that honey-do list down some and still have enough time to head to the lake for just a little fishin’ on your 4th.
You deserve it!
