Gotta give credit where credit is due! My DH has been awesome for the last couple days! He's just about a week and a half post surgery. Thursday I had to come home from work early because that was when Cowboy got into the neighbors yard... I wasn't happy about it. I worked on fence that day...worked on the garden, worked on goats and basically worked myself to complete and total exhaustion. And, I'm sorry to say I wasn't as nice as I could have been to him. He asked me if I was 'mad' at him and I said no... I'm just exhausted. For the last two days he's stepped up and has been helping even more. Yesterday he trimmed all the trees in the front yard. We have a weeping Ash and I love it, it's beautiful when the branches drape to the ground. BUT - it's almost impossible to mow around/under it. I had tried mowing through the drooping branches and literally almost had my eye dug out of my head by a branch. So, he spent hours and hours trimming that tree, the crepe myrtle and the lower branches of another tree. Poor darlin', with his depth perception being so skewed after surgery he literally cut air about as often as he cut a branch! Today he cleaned up all the branches and tossed them to the goats. He worked outside in the heat just about as much as I did. He was awesome! And, icing on the cake - while I was outside milking this evening he cooked hamburgers. I think he knew I was just about at the limit of my stamina/strength and he did exactly what needed to be done! What a guy!
