Well, it's Friday again...Whoo-hoo!! And it's time for another edition of Find It Friday! I feel like I should subtitle this post, "What dis?" as that is a question I am asked on a constant basis, and have been asked for about six years.
Anywhoo...here's today's find it:
Another fun find on my counter as I was cleaning up for Papa Dick and Grandma D'lo's visit this afternoon (Joe always gets after me for cleaning before his family comes, but I like to appear to be together.).
Do you know what it is?
Ignore the dust on the counter...I hadn't cleaned that part yet.
Is it an orange construction cone for an ant farm?
No.
Guess again...
Think monster truck rallies, nagging wives, and noise...
Give up?
Do you care?
Are you still reading?
It's....
Earplugs!!!!
Why? Have we been to a monster truck rally recently? Has Joe heard enough of my constant nagging about putting his stuff away?
Answer: A surprising no!
Another subtitle for this find it could be Farm Safety: Hearing Edition.
Ask around...but speak up, because a lot of farmers have hearing loss due to many hours spent on noisy tractors, near unloading augers and possibly nagging wives...but we won't go there. Joe is trying to prevent this by using these ear plugs as he unloads grain carts. My hope is that he's preventing this so he can hear me say clearly, "Put these away so Amelia does not EAT THEM!!"
Anyway, I hope this Friday finds you enjoying life, taking in the nice weather (at least nice, crisp weather around here) by wearing a fun sweater or watching football, and hearing well.
And if you're around a farmer and he/she is unloading grain and not answering...don't blame it on aloofness, hopefully you can blame it on ear plugs!
We keep boxes of those babies in the workshop & Farmer D's always got them in the glove compartment in the truck...I've lost count of how many times I've opened the clothes dryer and had earplugs fall out!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the days my son played in a rock band. We kept them in the car just in case we stopped by to listen.
