Secondhand Sunday

Sunday, February 13, 2011

Sundays are my Secondhand day. I'm basically too lazy to think of anything new to say so I re-post a "vintage" entry.

If you aren't in the mood for repeats, please feel free to change the channel.


"BALLCOCK

Original Post Date, September 23, 2009


I love being a homeowner but what I don't love are household repairs. Yesterday, my toilet starting making a funny noise when I flushed it and when I took off the lid, water shot out at me.

I think it's my ballcock.

I really have no idea what it is. I just like saying ballcock.

Ballcock.

Say it with me.

Ballcock.

  1. "Ballcock!" There, I said it. Feels good. And I am SO with you. They always say it needs a man to do the household repairs. I AM a man, and all I can say is: "Yes, it needs a man. Another man, that is. Not me."

  2. Good grief girl. Ya usually have to grab it, Yank it a few times and its fixed, well for a while till it gets loaded again. But yours actually seemed a bit premature. Hate it when that happens.

    I love Simply Sutherns reply....purr....I like a man who takes control and knows what to do!
