Stacking and Thinking....

Tweet

Today I was helping the hubby stack the split wood. He uses the wood splitter. He puts the split wood in a pile and I carry it and stack it in our "wood" area. Today, I decided to work smarter not harder, so I got a wheel barrow out, stacked it full of the split wood and then "wheeled" it in and stacked it up. Out in the cool weather, my mind gets to thinking about things. Maybe the cool weather is clearing out the cobwebs!! Anyway, the hubby and I go out and get all the wood (for our home and the mother-in-laws.) She doesn't help with stacking it or even for that matter she doesn't even come get any wood to put in her house. Her son (my husband) takes it in her house. Now, I think or maybe it's just that my family is different, they (my family) would at least help stack it. Now, one might say, but she's old. My mom is older by about 7 years, she still walks to deliver papers 6 days a week. She walks to the library 4 times a week and is the library assistant. My aunt is the same age as the mother-in-law and she still is working full time. I think the mother-in-law seems older than my mom and aunt, because in the winter she just hibernates. Maybe this is why she "seems" older, she's not active or nor does she get outside. I want to be active, even though my body might have aches and pains, I enjoy being active outside and hopefully I'll live a long and productive life!! ~Peace~ photo is mine
