It's a small world...with duct tape and smooshmallows!


In the process of preparing to move into our new house, we have been looking into putting up a fence. We had been told by a friend that the guy who put up his fence was really good and had the best prices, so our search began to get in touch with him. My wife called our friend Lolie to get the number for her daughter, who had the number for the fence builder. Hope that makes sense. While she was doing this and having a hard time getting in touch with anyone, and had to leave messages, I was driving home from work.
I decided to stop by and see what had been done to the house. As I made a left hand turn to go see the house, a mini van pullled through the stop sign and hit the back of my car. We traded insurance the police showed up and it was your usually fender bender. The guy who hit me was incredibly friendly, and we began talking about work. That's when I found out he built fences. Not only did he build fences, but he was the fence builder we were trying to get in touch with. In all of Chattanooga, what are the chances of getting hit by the one guy we were trying to get in touch with. Bad news is, my bumper is being held on by duct tape (as pictured). Good news is, I am pretty sure I am going to get a discount on my fence since he hit my car.
Luke is about to turn 2 on the 31st. Kristina is in the baking mood and bought stuff to make Luke a cake. While looking at the ingredients, Aaron got excited and asked when he could have some "smooshmallows." That would be marshmallows for those who don't know kid talk. Of course when he was on the phone with his grandma, and we tried to get him to say it, he said it correcctly.
That's the latest in my little world.

What a great idea... getting in accidents to get discounts on stuff! I think the next time I'm in the market for a house - I'll find one I like and then follow the owner around in my car until the opportune time to stage an "accident"!!
