| I'm king of the castle! And you're all dirty rascals! Yup, it's really cool being on top of the waterhouse. I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to get on top of this thing and now here I am. Life is good. |
 |
| Here I am. Huh. Still up here. It's kinda boring up here. View isn't as good as I thought. And how the heck am I gonna get down? I need help. Hey! Quit laughing at me! Somebody hellllllp. |
 |
| "Just trust me," Dave says. It's not his butt up here. I hope there's no dog poo on the bottom of my shoes... |
 |
| ... if there is, now it's all over my jacket. |
 |
| Do I look stupid? Because I feel stupid. Nope, this isn't humiliating at all. Not if you're six. Unfortunately I'm 12. |
 |
| Stop taking pictures of my butt! |
 |
| Whew! Safe at last. |
 |
| Now I gotta find the camera and destroy the evidence before Mom posts this on the internet. GAH! TOO LATE! |
I bet he's so grateful for a mom like you!
ReplyDeleteHe loves me ... then again, he loves me not... but mostly it's close to Christmas so he puts up with me!
DeleteWatch watch out, Cathy - when he grows up & you're in your dotage he'll have some say over which nursing home to stick you in! (That was the threat my son used if I ever embarrassed him!)
ReplyDeleteI've already told him he's changing my diapers... which freaks him out to no end. Especially since I'm an "old" mom, that dotage is closer than he realizes! Muahahahahahaha!
DeleteAh yes, another post to show the prom date and/or future wife. lmao But, what's a 'waterhouse'?
ReplyDeleteOur log cabin doesn't have a basement so the water lines from the well come up on the outside of the building. To make sure they don't freeze, Dave built an insulated and heated "waterhouse" around them! Isn't he a talent?
DeleteI'm not sure what the official name for it is, but we always call it the waterhouse!
Haha I saw the picture and had horrible thoughts he was on an outhouse!!
ReplyDeleteI know! It totally looks like the shitter!
DeleteThanks so much for putting a smile on my face this morning. This was so sweet, and what great pictures/brilliant captions Cath!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jaybird, you adorable thing you!
DeleteThat's awesome. I remember those days. Except I was 6. Well, 4. Still...
ReplyDeleteC'mon, Andrew, tell the truth - it was yesterday !!!!!!! :)

ReplyDeleteAlmost as cute as you, Cindy!
DeleteI laughed aaaallllll the way down.
ReplyDeleteHehehehehe- me too! That's why the photos are blurry!
DeleteMy kids would totally do that.
ReplyDeleteAnd have. :)
I know! It's the universal cat-in-a-tree-call-the-fire-department scenario!!!
DeleteIs that YOUR house? It's fantastic; those corner dovetail joints are superb. I'm jealous.
ReplyDeleteThat's so nice, Cro, thanks! Yes, it is our house! Built in 1880, which may not sound old in Europe, but it is one of the oldest structures in Muskoka, where I live (wasn't settled by the dreaded white men until mid to late 1800s). And no doubt built by trappers or loggers with trees on the property.
DeletePoor Sam! Lmfeckingao!!! Dave to the rescue! Great pics! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Poor Sam!
ReplyDeleteThanks Liz!
DeleteNo chance to destroy the evidence! Poor Sam!
