'The best man for the job is a woman' are the words this week. Sometimes I agree with that statement, or as my Dad used to say, If you want a job doing, do it yourself.
Audrey wanted her friend to go to the sales in town and had asked her last week. Kathy had said no, as she was waiting for the plumber to come to fix her dripping tap that was just getting worse by the day. As she was on a water metre she was dreading the next bill. Audrey went to see her to see if the job was done as she knew Kathy liked nothing better than the sales, as she could buy the past Winter things so much cheaper.
"Well, is it done" asked Audrey a few days later.
Kathy was ready with the answer "No it isn't, he didn't turn up, so I left a message on his answering machine and told him not to bother coming as the job was now done, and added that she wouldn't be recommended his services to anyone"
"Wow, how did you get someone else so quickly" asked Audrey.
"Easy, I didn't, I went out bought the tools and did the job myself'
"Gosh, I'm really impressed" said Audrey
"Well "said Kathy "The best man to do the job is a woman"
I am linking this to Vicki's theme of Music on Art Journal Journey.

Good thinking on this story and I am sure you had a wealth of ideas that sprung to mind straight away. I am rather surprised it was not connected to so many of the jobs you have done yourself around the house - or maybe gardening. I think you will follow my drift.
Great idea, especially about the plumbing.
