This is not a rant. Not complaining. Not whining. It's just the way it is. See, DH travels. It's his job. There isn't a local office, his "home base" is in St. Louis. In case you haven't read my profile, we are in INDI-totally different state-ANA. And even though "home base" is in St. Louis, DH is usually not working there. "They" send him all over the country to work. Which means most of the time DH lives in a motel. He's been doing this for the last 20 years so it's not much of a big deal to us. We've pretty much adapted to the way things are when he is gone. It also means that his time home can be stressful. He has to cram all his "normal guys would do this after work" stuff into the few days off he gets a month. And one of the ways we deal with THAT is to divide my life into 2 different personalities. The "DH is gone" me and the "DH is home" me. Right now I am the "DH is gone" me. That means I get a while to work on some of the projects that don't require DH's skills or attention. First up on my list was the sunflowers.
They have been drying outside but rain is on the way so it is time to take care of these! I got about 2/3s of an ice cream bucket full of seeds for the goats and chickens to nibble and peck at. I think they will come in real handy this winter when I need something to get the chickens to stir up the straw on the coop floor and to get a goat to walk where I want it to!
And there are some soaking right now to roast for DH because I know he loves sunflower seeds.
But don't expect to hear how he liked them because that will be when I am the "DH is home" me and there won't be time for blogging!
