Helping out.


This evening was spent at the in-law's house. The kids, my sister-in-law, and myself cleaned the house. We put together fresh beds, cleaned out the fridge, and mopped the floors. We also did a repair job on a screen door that was beyond letting flies in, it was letting in the 100 pound Chocolate Lab! I had picked up one of those gaurds so the dog and cat can't scratch the screen again, so that is also in place now. It makes my in-laws happy to have a clean house, and to know they have family that cares enough to take care of them. And it really pleases my husband that we will take care of his folks for him.
Duane (my husband) is a great son. His dad is too old to do much more than climb in his loader tractor and scoop some feed for the cows. Last Sunday his dad twisted his ankle geting out of the loader because the step is too high and situated under the loader door. Now that loader has it's own deck! Duane got right to work adding a huge step that is 12 inches out from under the door and 2 feet wide. It's so big he even added it's own mud gaurd because it sticks way out between the tires, and he also added steal angle deflectors on the outside corners of the step.
