Patio.

I don't believe I mentioned, I now have a patio!  

I was at work, and Husband wasn't answering the phone.  Not an unusual state of events.  He will go help someone, or be on the tractor, or just not have his phone on him, so I might not get a reply.  Sometimes for a few minutes, sometimes for hours.  

This was one of the hours, day...  

I had nothing of vital importance, but had checked on what he wanted for dinner, and the mail I'd picked up in town.  

----.

Huh.  Oookay...  

I had mentioned that I was going to need to get weeding finished, and that I wanted to do the patio bricks, but it would have to wait until the next week or so...  

It was nasty hot here.  We Oregonians don't do humidity, and it was near 90 with high humidity.  Barfies.  I haven't ever enjoyed hot weather, and with steam heat?  I enjoy it even less.  My In-laws who live in Florida, don't seem to mind it so much... but, they don't seem to be able to take cold well. So, go figure. 

Anyway...

I come home, and Husband keeps saying I need to change clothes, and come out to the garden.  Once again, oookay.

We walk out there, and he has put the sand down, set the bricks, the whole thing is tamped...   I was flabbergasted.  He was wiped out, but put the thing in, in ONE day.  

I now have a nice patio, I have sat on it, with a little makeshift chair, enjoying my garden.  

Husband is one for surprises.  Yes, I would say, this one counts!

Now, he's asked what kind of chair I want to put there...  

Uh.  A sitting kind?  ;)
