We haven't seen the sun shine in awhile........ ALL I wanted to do is go mow lawn. Exercise as I do the push mowing and there is a lot of it...... fresh air..... soaking the sun rays... one with nature..... let me out of this crazy house........ just me and my pigeon toed lawn mower.
I hadn't step foot out of the house yet and down the driveway came the county blade....... Tom was trailing behind on his 4-wheeler.........
I hadn't step foot out of the house yet and down the driveway came the county blade....... Tom was trailing behind on his 4-wheeler.........
OH DEAR!!! What in the world is that boy up to now????? After the blade left, Tom came in to tell me that the county got some money to use to improve the road as it is an access....... "boat landing" at the bridge by our place. They were trying to put a 4" lift on the 3 mile road....... Tom also had them put a load of gravel in our approach....... ??? I don't know how he does it.....
Okay.... that's all fine so now that meant Tom had something to do...... He would be dragging our driveway to get all the low spots filled in and what ever else he does to keep it in the great shape it's in...... "I'll be mowing lawn.... just me and my lawn mower...... one with nature.......
So Tom started dragging and I started mowing..... mmmm the smell of the fresh cut grass..... a slight cool breeze making it comfortable...... just me and my lawn mower........... one with nature.....
C Y N D I E !!!!!!!!!! I turned to see Tom on foot...... "are you stuck?" I asked hoping it was that simple. "N O! something broke!!!!!!!" OH BOY..... there goes my plans for the day! It's not good if he calls me anything but Mom...... Sometimes I get tired of hearing Mom..Mom...Mom... but right this minute I'd give anything to hear him say MOM.... (deep breath)
We towed the wheeler to the house with the van which he vowed NEVER to ride in ever again and "I mean it" he said the night before. Before you know it I was under the 4 wheeler with him taking off parts looking for what was broke?????
My son had me take pictures as we dismantled it in case we couldn't get it back together......I was called a few other choice names as I forged my way past him to accomplish what he could not which then ended with "Ohhh"........ I like that the sound of that defeated exhaled Ohhh...... but soon his voice gained volume....... Geeze... if I wasn't deaf I will be if he keeps that up.... or the guy is going to pop a cork!.
As the day drew to an end.. we had parts in the house that we suspect is the problem ......

Tom ended up with a headache from hell from the stress of the day and loosing his one link to the "feeling of freedom"....... freedom to come and go as he pleased..... up and down the county road ......
It finally let up by morning but his breathing has been strained all day..... "Your still having anxiety"......."yeah I am"........ "You feel like you lost your freedom... you have that trapped feeling".... He looked at me shocked that I knew what he was feeling....."Yeah I do" ........he said. "Hopefully we will have it running by the week end"....... "I hope so".... he answered with a deep sigh.......
ME TOO!
