Talan is driving us CRAZY!!!! He is into everything, breaks everything, knocks everything over...let me see....what else....oh yeah, he even finds a way to short a fuse or wire to make the power go out in the house. No I am not kidding!!! Tonight after dinner Talan was walking around the house "BANGING" things with a plastic drumstick (note to family: don't EVER, EVER, EVER by this child a drum set...please...I beg you) we could hear him banging things back in the bedrooms. Then Trey said "come see what Talan did to the light in the bathroom" so I went to look, and the vanity light wouldn't turn on. At first I thought maybe he tripped the bathroom electricity so I reset the outlet thingy...and...nothing. The other light in the bathroom still worked fine. Trey said he was banging the light switch with the drum stick and the light just turned off. So Javi went outside to check the breaker....that didn't work.....I changed the light bulbs....that didn't work....so we took off the switch plate and Javi started "banging" on the switch with his fist....and wallah....the light flickered on. So what would any handyman do at that point? Keep banging on the wall with his fist of course! I said to him, "that's not how you fix it, Mr. Electrician!" But eventually, after more banging and turning the light on and off, it works just fine again. I guess Talan must have loosened a wire in the switch...so it's only a matter of time before it goes out again I'm figuring....or the bathroom catches on fire...whichever happens first!
BY the way...I was just kidding about putting Talan up for adoption so don't anyone get any crazy ideas!
