[Ag-eq] anyone out there

[Susan Roe]

Don't worry Jody, venting is just part of it all.  I know how you feel about 
everything being in a certain place.  My husband and I have this lively 
discussion every once in a while.  He figures the best thing to do is first 
do what I want and then just get another one for himself and put it where he 
wants it to go.  I have certain tools that I don't want to be so long or so 
heavy because I'm only five foot one and he's five foot eleven.  The back 
side of my number one coop has a storage area five by twelve for their feed, 
nesting/flooring, several stacks of one gallon buckets which we use for feed 
and gathering eggs and several tools we use in and around their coops and 
pens.

This is where I want my short rake, a lite weight flat-blade shovel and a 
pare of hand clippers.  These things always seem to sprout legs and either 
end up in the working garage or in his shop or shed.  He always laughs at me 
when I lean out of the coop and hollar for him.  He knows right away I'm 
missing a tool and he is hollaring right back, "I know, I'll get it for 
you!"  He's a piece of work, but he's so wonderful about lettting me try my 
hand at whatever comes up on the farm.  I haven't yet talked him into 
letting me try the small chain saw even if I get him to let me put my hands 
over his so I can at least get the feel of cutting down a small tree.  I 
think that would be cool.  He says I should just stick to my prooning blade 
because that can still handle anything five inches thick.  He also doesn't 
think it is time for him to have a heart attack just yet.  LOL
