Mary Beth Posted September 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 You might run into my son...if you do....tell him that he fell through the ceiling in the garage again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 I think you need to pay Sandy to go to the airport and wait for Luke's plane to land...and then for sure you can get the message to him that he fell through the ceiling again.....telephathy doesn't alway work with kids over the age of 25...till then they know mom's still looking and the call wondering what ya wanted....after that, ya gotta pay someone to track them down. Also redneck man at out house...he use to have a mallard duck, but when it got so moth eaten I made him throw it away....:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 MaryBeth, your mending went quite well and hope the other one does too, your leg that is.. Hope that's all that was injured! Sorry it happened, and glad you weren't hurt badly. Just fess up, it's less painful and is over quickly. Himself is so unobservant I could leave the hole and he'd not notice.

Sheri Butler Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 LMBO @ Rita regarding her hubby! ROFLMAO! Oh boy! I think the hourglass is probably about to run out...dont ya think Mary Beth??? I think once a door goes closed a few times in the garage, whether it's the remote full garage door, or a side door...your patch job may start to droop. That's just my opinion, and thinking it could fall at any time. Now, .. maybe that in itself might save your butt.....but, I dont know... Ya could make a booby trap out of it...so when he DOES open one of the garage doors...it will just "fall?????" HINT HINT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted September 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Sheri, I actually was able to put a couple of nails in the sheetrock so I think it will stay for a time....wonder if I could tell him I am sure I felt tremors this afternoon....tell him I think we had a slight earthquake...cause that is really what it felt like I am sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meg_marsh Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 I agree - get that patch going - You did a great job sort of fixing it but you don't want it to fall. It sounds as if it does fall, it's your head it will find and then what will DH do and even more important - what will we do without our major contributor to this site??? Heven help us if that happens - be good to yourself and heal! Also Happy Birthday to DH - have a great party! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramona-quilter Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 You are one lucky girl, Mary Beth. Everytime I think about your long leg dangling thru that hole when the drywall gave way, I have to laugh. I know that I should not laugh at your misfortune or your boo-boos. You knew that you shouldn't go into that attic but that Wiley Coyote spirit of yours led you in there anyway. So did you get the photos that your were looking for? And if not, maybe you could have an ambulance standing by when you make your next attempt to get those photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoore1223 Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Looks like a pretty good patch job....You just have to keep him from looking up until after the party. When is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollyrw Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Here's the conversation I just had with my DH. Holly says: If I were climbing around in the attic in the garage and stuck my leg through the ceiling, would you be mad? Mitch says: LOL Holly says: That's what I thought. Mitch says: hello.... Mike Mike is our contractor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted September 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 My DBIL promised to come fix it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renae Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Is he one of the DBIL that you sent the picture too??? :D He is going to give you so much crap about it. But that is so nice of him to fix it for you. I sure hope you are feeling better today. Renae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lym95 Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Good Grief MB!! There. I said it again. Honesty is ALWAYS the best policy. I assure you if Margie met me at the door wrapped in nothing but Saran Wrap and told me that she'd fallen through the garage ceiling, I'd forgive her immediately! mrmargie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted September 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Mr Margie, You do say " Good grief Mary Beth", ha...and for good reason. I'm not fessing up until all 4 of his brothers and their wives, his mom, his step-dad and his gal, all of our children and their spouses/girlfriend...and all of our friends and other relatives are present. Then I will live to see another day. According to my DBIL they are all going to make me hoist up my pant leg to show off my shin Thank you all for the duct tape suggestion...now, don't you think if I was trying really hard to hide a hole in the ceiling I would not frame it out with a silver/gray colored tape that is 3" wide? Come on people...that is a dead give-a-way!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 You are living in the dark ages Mary Beth....Duct Tape comes in rainbow colors now...and there is even a white one that looks like paper tape..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Mary Beth, I don't suggest you wear the saran wrap with all that company! :P:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Originally posted by Mary Beth .....According to my DBIL they are all going to make me hoist up my pant leg to show off my shin I think you should just wrap your injured leg in Saran Wrap. and when you lift your leg to show off the skin. That would be funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted September 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Funny....I am about out of saran wrap and since I have not been watching my diet very closely....not sure there is enough to cover what needs to be covered So, here is the plan today! DH is working out at the gym, will call on his way home (I've trained him that way), will stop at Subway...because he is more careful about what he eats. I will make sure I dash to the front door when he pulls in the driveway so it looks like I have missed him dearly all day (which I have - yada, yada). Then he will eat is samich and fall asleep in the recliner - Ta-da!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Mary Beth, So does that mean you can't park in the garage? My hubby notices everything I don't want him to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted September 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Are you kidding...park in the garage? Where would we put all of our junk...and the boat....and the extra refrigerator...and all the tools and fishing poles...and the goose??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Well then it should be easy to keep him out of there! LOL you will of course have to pull the boat out for him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
