Should I Look For my Husband?

The gardent isn't that big. But the property is a couple of acres, so I can't see him from the house.

@paigea oh wow that is indeed a big one. The only gardens I can think of are those that only cover a house's front or back.. However, if it's a few acres, that's a different matter.

@rsa101 When I say garden, I just mean the vegetable garden. It's not that big. Part of our property is just bush, so the yard part is not too large. Our peaceful country retreat.

@paigea I'm glad you're both still healthy and don't need to worry about each other like that.

Do you take your phone out so you could call Pretty? I do try to take my phone if I go for a walk. As I might start out for a 10 minute walk and be gone a couple of hours. That gets Hubby out driving the roads, so I try not to cause that worry.

He said he was going to try not to go to town for a week. All fall, winter, spring he goes nearly every day! So, he has plenty of escapes. ?? I said I'd bet him money he couldn't stay home for a week He has had problems out in the yard (not health related) that have had him wonder if I'd ever come looking for him. Just things like needing help finding something. I guess we should keep track of each other. He does go in and out all day, so it's hard to know where he is.

@paigea I relate so much with you. I relate with each and every word that you wrote here. The thing that instantly struck me is "the work is never ending". I too have a small garden and I know how much physical effort it needs to manage even trivial looking things. Someone may not even notice the efforts that are put. But the one who is doing that, definitely knows what it takes. It's the same for me as you said I work according to my mood. It's a different kind of satisfaction to work when our mind and brain is ready for that. Otherwise it looks like you are being forced to do that work. And there is no fun doing that.

Very true, the vegetable garden isn't that big, but takes a lot of work. The yard is big and, the work is never ending. I like to work outside when it suits me, not on someone else's schedule

@paigea As I thought.

He did.

@paigea Ah, I see.

It would take quite a shout to hear each other from the garden to the house. Better to walk out there. The neighbour might think something was wrong if we started shouting!

definitely.

@paigea

I was productive inside this time.

Hubby always comes looking for me. I tend to let him be

Very true.

He found more seeds to plant, watering and weeding.

@paigea that is great

He's fine. He did a lot of work

It sure is.

Yes, it's exactly like that. We can get involved in a task and time races by.

It can eat up our day. But very satisfying.

I like your thinking. He did do a lot!

That's usually my thinking too. I was productive inside today , so I resisted the work out there
