Approach, please! Part deux.

Yesterday I told the hubby again about the approach problem. And to my amazement, he told the contractor that This Will Not Do! So amazingly, the Humphreys crew was back at it at 8:00 am with their little dozer!  I can't believe that my shy, non-confrontational hubby went to bat for me like that! Normally he leaves that kind of "dirty work" to me!

But wait, there's more! Yesterday he placed flat paving stones under the doggy escape-gate and at the foot of the back steps so Jerry, our evil Kraut-dog can't dig holes anymore. AND, when he came home from hunting and found me on the phone cheering up a friend who was feeling down, he started cooking dinner himself without my asking!

Now I'm not so egocentric that I think every day should be all about me. But a day like this every now and then, or a little tiny bit of this attitude showing through every day--maybe not even the actions, sometimes the attitude is enough!--and it would make all the difference in the WORLD to me!

One small step for man, one giant leap for gimps!
