Non-stop

A detailed Summary of Non-stop

Non-stop There are four people that live in my house, including myself, that are constantly on the move. My dad though is like the energizer bunny, non-stop from the time he gets up for work till the time he goes to bed. At work he does physical labor, anything from digging ditches to operating back hoes, he does it. When he gets off work at 3:30 p.m. you would think that he would want to sit down and rest; no not in his case. He will find anything to do just to keep busy: mow the lawn, wash down the house, or just mess with things to see what is wrong. I personally thing that it is a nervous condition, but I guess if he's fine that's all that matters.

One day my parents decided they wanted to put a hot tub in our backyard. Right away my dad was outside getting the measurements for the concrete that had to be poured. You could call my dad a perfectionist because if anything goes wrong all hell breaks loose. For hours he just sat out in the backyard contemplating how and when he wanted everything done. Periodically, he would call my mother and I into the backyard to tell us his new idea of what he wanted do

ne. Of corse we would just agree with him because that more he sat there the more things would change. I would try to tell him to just relax, and come in and watch television with us. His answer to that was always the same; when you want things done you just can not sit there you have to do something.

The workers only did these side jobs on weekends so we had o wait a week until the concrete was poured. During this time my dad was non-stop after work (that was not+ unusual). He was getting the final arrangements for the hot tub to be delivered, and how he wanted to run the electrical.

I guess that I do have an appreciation for my dad being the way he is; even though it drives me crazy. If he did not have the will and the drive to have things the way he planned, I would not have the nice things I have today.

That weekend the concrete was poured, and the hot tub was delivered. As usual he sat outside and inspected everything head to toe. Happy everything went the way he plane he actually came inside to sit down and relax.

As he sat outside and stared like a hawk again he noticed something he did not
