Helping Out

I swore when my husband and I got married that there were jobs around the house that he would have to do. I would wash dishes, do laundry, clean the rabbit boxes, wash windows and so on. However, I would NOT mow the grass or learn to use the snow blower. Maybe I'm spoiled, but I would do all other house work. Well, today I learned to mow. My husband is trying to redo our upstairs bathroom. He works crazy hours so I thought I'd help him out today by mowing the grass. The past few months he's only mowed the front yard so it looks nice from the street. I managed to get that done without too much trouble. I did have to call my dad to tell me how to start the mower... yeah, well, I sucked up my pride and got it done. I thought I'd be sweet and tackle the backyard. HA HA HA!!! This pict shows how high the grass was and how far I got before I ran out of gas. We do have a gas can with gas in it, but I couldn't get it open for the life of me! I'll finish the job when my hubby gets home and opens the can for me! HA HA! I must say my husband is so sweet because last week when I was having a rough time at school he surprised me with flowers. So, I hope he likes his surprise! ^_^
