John came home from work early on Wednesday - sick. He rested ... and then the wood peckers got to work.
Yes, we have wood peckers here. They LOVE the stucco on our house. There was extensive repair work done before we closed on this house last summer.
John would chase them away and then they would come back. So much for resting. He ran to the hardware store and picked up foam, stucco mix and paint. By nightfall the wood peckers left and John went to bed early. Really early. 7:00 early. We have several holes started.
John stayed home from work yesterday - sick. First time in forever that he took a sick day. He rested and then the peckers came again. He was fed up. He grabbed his ladder, cut out the damaged stucco, patched it up, painted it and hung up cut up plastic trash bags. So much for resting. He did rest in between hole patches and the patching process.
Holes are fixed. No woodpeckers today. John is back to work ... feeling a little better.
