Can you elaborate on “yelling at cords and hoses” as I have my own style of that very activity and would like pointers from my betters.
My husband usually gets involved in the yelling also but only mostly due to my lack of returning hoses and cords to their homes.
I am a little more on edge lately with attention to yard detail what with murder hornets, Arabian sandstorms and this morning we woke up to news of Florida brain eating amoebas.
Any advice would be appreciated SB.
The general rule here is that if I touch an electrical cord or a garden hose it will invariably tangle, kink and pretty much anything except spontaneously combust.
When this happens it’s good to let off steam so your head doesn’t explode. Mother Mary and Joseph usually get called into the fray as do all the various races and religions. You want to include all of them lest your neighbors think you’re exclusionary. Sailors would blush.
I bought a Flexzilla hose and I do like it. It never ever kinks and it is very light weight. It does like to tangle sometimes so you have to unravel it. There is no such thing as a fool proof hose. Don’t buy a contractor grade hose. It’s heavy and it still kinks.
As far electrical cord, search on YouTube for how to properly wind up a cord. This has now saved me from fits of rage and Mother Mary and Joseph can now rest in peace.
