So I'm sitting around in my garage last night. A few weeks back someone pointed out that I have a ton of shovels. So I counted: I have 11 shovels hanging in my garage. Now, they all do serve a purpose. Bear with me now:
5 - snow shovels. One each for the three kids, one for me, and one as a backup in case one breaks.
1 - large scoop shovel. This is for using as a big dust pan for cleaning up large piles of messes in the garage after projects.
1 - small flat shovel. Perfect for cleaning up smaller messes or cleaning mud off of the driveway or sidewalk
2 - regular shovels. For planting bushes, digging holes, turning over the garden. Why 2? Well, good question.
2 - plastic snow shovels the kids used when they were little. I've saved this because I leave one in the backyard for cleaning up the patio. The other one is backup.
So clearly, I am a shoveloholic. WTF. Didn't plan this, but I have an abundance of shovels.
So I got to thinking, what other kind of oholic am I?
1. Lawnoholic. I hand water (with a sprayer) new grass seed so it gets the proper amount of moisture without pooling up and washing down the hill. I hand pick weeds out of the lawn. I'm always outside looking at how to improve the landscape. Sometimes I just sit there with a beer and look and my lawn.
2. Sportsoholic. I watch games constantly - doesn't matter the sport. Usually a KC based team but sometimes not. I have a TV in the garage, and a portable one I drag out to the back patio to watch sports. There is always a game of some kind on in my house.
So there's three. Jeez I'm nuts.
