Default Gettin out of work!

Anna sent me out to trim the lilac bush in front of our house and I was attacked by an irrate mama bird. Seems I stumbled on her nest. Well the Lilac bush in the front of the house will have to stay half done until the little guys vacate. Best excuse Ive had to get out of work in a long time.

I tried using that excuse to avoid sweeping out my workspace, claiming a mouse had made a home in the shavings. I forgot the wife has this thing about mice...

Ironing Board? What the heck is that? The little bride throws it in the dryer, hands it back to be and says,'That's good enough, go away" Hmmm, a woman using an ironing board, In this day and age! WOW.

Goody, I tried that excuse on my little bride and she said, " What does Goody's bird nesting in his bush have to do with you cleaning the house"?

It didn't work for me!

Question Re: Gettin out of work!

Have to say that is a good one. I would try that but we do not have any bushes.

Thank I could get away with it anyway?
