Well, you folks are showing me just how lucky I am with my hunny. The house
came with me (along with the kids and the payments) but he does dig holes
for me if I ask (nicely) though I do most myself when MY time permits. He
also roto tills large patches of grass I've just killed (for more beds) and
builds boxes for raised beds and fences to keep the dog and stray neighbor
kids out. He doesn't have a brother, but I have a big strappin' 17 year old
who likes to show off his manly brute strength (rolling my eyes here lol) by
hauling mulch/rocks/compost etc for me, and a 7(he would correct me at this
point and add 'and a half') year old who are in training to spoil some lucky
ladies rotten in due time as well. They do the heavy work, even though I
am capable (when not hurting-I have a 'guy type job' that beats me up on
occasion) but they do that and then let me do the 'tedious' work that I call
'therapy' and enjoy it when it's done. This type of guy is out there folks,
I had to 'kiss a frog' first, but I found my prince eventually and now we're
training two more for the future lol.

As for Pam, IMO sounds like she has a good start with this one. He's buying
her roses in plant form. He could be buying things for himself and saying
'Look hunny what I got for us!' or worse, doing that and then she finds them
on her credit card bill the next month lol. (can you say 'frog'?) This one
has potential, as I see it, he can be trained and soon they'll be digging
holes together somewhere.

All that said, I did know of a guy who might have been persuaded to dig
holes and such who isn't far from Seatle, but somebody snagged him recently.
Sorry. ;-)

Me too. Pam's boyfriend needs to branch out and buy her a house
instead of roses next time, where she can have an outside garden! What
do you think, Pam?

Shiva-- shame, shame, shame.....how sexist, can I believe my eyes? "Her
boyfriend needs to buy her a house" ? As if she needs HIM to do it?
Hey,

you
know, the kind that have SO much money they can buy people houses-- send
