Papa Smurf
Well, this is me today. No, not because I wore a red hat, and I didn't grow a beard. I did turn a fairly large percentage of my body blue today. I was reminded of why I delegate jobs that require someone to take their time and be careful. Ladies 9-hole guest day is tomorrow. I thought it would be nice to dye a couple of our ponds that were cloudy. I thought of this great idea near the end of the day and figured it would only take a moment. Well, it takes more than a moment and working with concentrated dye is something you need the time to do. It is not a game to rush through. I hope the ponds will look good, I ruined a pair of pants, and I have blue on my forehead, forearms, and both hands. The real kicker is when I thought it would be a good idea to put it into a hand sprayer and spray the ponds. That worked until the nozzle blew off and I was amidst a blue cloud. No good deed goes unpunished. Image via Wikipedia
