My husband and I
celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary the day after the
election. It was a rough morning, I had
trouble getting up. My youngest 2 wanted
me to pay for not seeing them at all the day before. Stick Boy wanted to snuggle in bed and gave
me a lot of attitude about getting up.
Pre-Teen was mad, just mad but didn’t want to talk about it. I had bought hay the day before the election
but D-something Husband said he would do it later. So there I am ready to feed the cattle and
what do I discover when I pull back the tarp? NO HAY!
Stick Boy and I move
DH’s truck to the spot we keep the hay in and my 50 pound son starts helping me
move and lift hay bales that are as heavy as he is. Pre-Teen Daughter decided we were not doing
things the way we should so she yelled a few choice words at us and ran away
from us. Stick Boy and I stacked 3 bales
of hay, moved the sheep to their daytime area, and finished getting ready for school,
and Daughter comes back I hand her a bagel and we leave.
My gift to Darling
Husband was to call him and let him know how helpful Stick Boy was and not to
scream about not unloading the hay for me.
Darling Husband and I
have been having a dispute. 9 years ago, when we moved here one of the first fun improvements we did was to put a
waterfall where we pump water into the pond.
It was wonderful having the waterfall sound going into the pond when we
are filling it. Over the years the rocks
and pipes making the waterfall have sunk. Darling Husband wants the water in the pond higher than
the pipes going into the pond. If we are
paying to pump the water into the pond I want to be able to hear it falling
into the pond. Also it helps aerate the
water if it gathers oxygen as it falls into the pond – so clearly I am
right!
Darling Wonderful
Husband decided to redo the waterfall so it sounds wonderful as we fill the
pond. We still are arguing about how
high the pond should be, now, I want the kids to be able to paddle under the
bridge without lying down in the boat but that new dispute will be settled at a
later date.
The new pipe water will flow through.
Setting rocks so we do not see the ugly pipe.
Now that's my beautiful waterfall!
