She who waits

I've been nagging, very gently, the maintenance guys here to repair the steps and handrail off my deck.  Recently, the top railing around the sides of the deck has started to deteriorate, too.  I finally caught Jeff and Johnny outside this afternoon.  I think the rotted side railing really got their attention this time. They took measurements for the railings and the steps.  And also noted that some of the flooring is loose, too.

Maybe some good things will come to she who waits.
