Even if

you're a bit sick of hearing it, I have to share how wonderful Tony is about the horses.

We're waiting on Cosmo. I'm anxious to hear a delivery date. In the meantime, I caught Tony out in the back digging a big trench. I asked him why and he said....well, we're going to put a shelter here for Cosmo....we can't have him standing in mud all day. (Shame on me, I was going to suggest a temporary carport shelter till we had time to build something better.)

Then he explained the French drain he had planned...and the fill he talked my brother into donating to our project...The design of the shelter he is building and will have an overhang incase Scooter is in there -- because we know he's too dumb to go IN the stall in a storm. This way he'll have shelter from the rain if he decides to be with Cosmo.

When he showed me his pictures of the small two stall shelter he's building...it even had windows in the back so the boys could see us and we could fill the water buckets from the back of the shed.

This is Tony's first attempt at a shed. Who knows what it will end up looking like...but I love it already.

You keep right on braggin about that man! Sounds like you have a one in a million there.

[paintedhorizon]

That sounds so wonderful!

[Mellifluous]

You have a gem of a man!!!!!!! :D

Maybe he should start a "man school" to teach others on these good traits!

Tony is so cool! 8-)

[Brigitte]

He seems to be a very caring person, that is great !

[CarolU]

Sounds like a 'keeper' to me!

I fully believe the Army is right, "A good man is hard to find." Congratulations

Good for Tony!!! Yep, you keep on bragging. Any guy willing to build to get more horses is alright in my book. Hope Cosmo is all you hope for and more!

Yep...you found a good one.

I have news of my own. Hubby called me at work to ask if we have to give the hay supplier back his wagon tonite (supposed to be a load waiting for me today). I said no, we can take our time. He told me not to worry WE would get it done tonite. WE.....YIPEE!!. Last year I did it all by my lonesome, and had to carry each bale 75 ft to the barn cuz didn't have the tractor to move the wagon AND had 2 3yo girls underfoot.

Jodi,

Doesn't it feel good to be able to share the good news, too? We all have bad days and need to vent....I try to make sure I focus as much on the good things that happen. Keeps me blood pressure down :)
