I did it

Today I did it, I got up early and cleaned out the old well shed. I have all the boxes shoved to the outside and the floor hosed out and wet vacuumed. I bet you did not know you could vacuum with no hose.
I am here to say, "Yes You Can". I did!!
My hose had gone flat. So what can I do? My floor is full of muddy water, (water from when we had the tank replaced and they dumped the old tank on the floor), I need to get that water out as we have no drain in there.
I looked at the wet and dry vac, I thought the wand would fit in the hose hole, It did, it was not as tight but that thing has a lot of suction. So I held it in my hands and struggled to hold it once it was full of water. It worked. Now for a better idea, I propped the unit up sideways on a paint can to have an angle so the wand would touch the floor. It worked. Now I could hose all the muddy water to the low spot and clean it up.
Don't tell a stubborn woman she can't because she will.
The shed looked awesome. I also sprayed for bugs and spiders and moved four bundles of shingles to the shelf, off the floor. (Yes, 50 lb bundles, shh don't tell David.)
I then moved all my paint cans to the shed and then I rested.
What a great accomplishment. Something that has bugged me for ages. I detest bug ridden, messy sheds. Tomorrow I move a few more items and organize, organize, organize.

Did you hear about our fires. When David came home at 3PM, the neighbor stopped him and showed him the smoke. He had driven by the area where the fires were, totally oblivious. (he wanted to get home to me).
We go out and look and could hear popping. We saw the planes and helicopters. So close, Too close for comfort. We put sprinklers out around the shed and work garage. Also the dry grass that surrounds the driveway. We heard several homes had burned. Officially we have not heard anything. The fire began with a structure fire and with our high temps, (110) and hot dry winds it just went wild. They evacuated a golf course community up the hill from us, and closed all access in, You could go out but no one could come in.
We were prepared for the worse. We even discussed what we would take with us if they evacuated us. I said, photos, old clock, lamp and medicine. Forget clothes, I need these things. I would grab my old Bible as we walked out.
All planned, but in an emergency who really knows? Thank God they did control the fire, we kept watching the smoke as it boiled up and the helicopter was pretty close, we could see the buckets of water being dropped. They would pick it up from the river that is only a half mile from us.
This has been a horrible year for fires. In all the 43 years I lived here I never recall this many fires or threats. Yes, in Southern California but not here.
So keep our firemen in your prayers. They had a bad year, I am so glad I got to meet them earlier in the spring. (not under good circumstances) I met a few of them, Like about ten.
I later took them a pan of cinnamon rolls. They thoroughly enjoyed the treat.
Now I think I have to do something when this season is over and they are lounging around the fire house.
Now I will say Good night.
Love to all
