The Knob was Pulled Gently but it still came......................

Well yesterday was a long day for me- getting things done around the house whilst having a sing along to Elvis. All was going well until I gave the Landlords knob a little pull and a gentle twist. Now, everyone who knows me well knows how gentle I am with knobs. But this one just came clean off in my hand. There was a sharp gasp of an intake of laboured breath and a look of horror. On my face - not the Landlords. He wasn't even aware of what I had done. My first thought was get the serious glue. It took me near half an hour to get the top off the serious glue. I did a bit of gentle pulling and twist but to no avail so I had to go and get Mines Mr Husbands tool and work at it with that. Never so much in my life have been so serious about getting the top off the serious glue. Finally I managed to pull it off. If only the Landlords knob had been as hard to come off I wouldn't have an half an hour fight with the serious glue. Someone said 'get gorilla glue'. Well I had to say to her 'Mines Mr Husband won't let me have Gorilla glue because we don't have a gorilla and he be afraid that I shall get one'. Anyways then the serious glue was seriously glue was stuck very seriously in its tube. I was getting very frustrated. I got some more tools and after much poking and pricking I managed to get some out. To no avail. All this time the Landlords knob had sat in a dish on the sideboard. I applied glue to the Landlords Knob and a touch to the end of his pole. It just wasn't going to stick. Eventually I had to admit defeat and sat there with the Landlord knob in my hand whilst I contemplated the next move. So I texted Mines Mr Husband with the news of what I had done to the Landlords knob and he said he would have a look at the Landlords Knob when he got home. I was just hoping the Landlord wouldn't want me to pay for a new Knob because they knobs don't come cheap ya know. I was so very grateful to mines Mr Husband for coming and expertly handling the Landlord's Knob just like a pro! Knob re-attached, (although betwixt you and I it seems I was not the first woman to have an issue with the Landlords Knob- it already was sticky. Me thinks it had been pulled off before more than once). New curtains now hanging nicely from the Landlords pole. Very pleased. On the downside mines Mr Husband has ordered me to refrain from pulling or twisting anymore knobs whilst he is at work! Or working in the CO-OP!......No hang on- Twerking in the CO-OP is what he said- not working!
