And in today's example of "You Can't Make This Up," consider this:
I'm outside cutting grass and it's time to spread some weed killer around. I have some pretty extensive landscaping surrounding the house that consists of several very long and wide beds of river rocks, and right now the grass and weeds are popping up like mad. So I bought a 2 gallon sprayer from Lowe's and some BioAdvanced Weed Killer, just aching for the chance to use it and get rid of all the crap growing up between the rocks. It's been raining for the past two weeks, so when today came up clear I saw my chance.
So I finished cutting, trimming and blowing the drive clear of the clippings, and now it's time for the weed killer. I go into the shed and look at the directions for mixing on the bottle of BioAdvanced Weed Killer, and......there are none. It says to follow the mixing directions on the sprayer.
OK, I can handle that. So I go into the house and get the instructions for the sprayer that I bought, then look for the instructions on mixing and........there are none. It says to follow the mixing instructions on the weed killer container.
I swear you can't make this up.
So I go the web site for BioAdvanced and find the mixing instructions. Why they didn't put them on the friggin' container is beyond me, but whatever.
But now I'm out of time, so the weed killer application will have to wait until tomorrow.
Yeah, life is a challenge sometimes, but that's what makes it interesting.
