Hardworking Guy of mine

Changing the tire in the dark
I don't always give Guy the credit and praise he deserves so this is my shout out to him at how hard he's been working.

On the way to Finn's agility class last week I had an issue with the tire pressure. I got about .1 miles away from the field when the tire pressure came on so I pulled in to the parking lot and called Guy. I got out to check and I ended up puncturing the left rear tire wall. No idea how it happened. I could feel the air rushing out/see it rapidly deflating. Forgetting about roadside assistance I called him. Guy said I would need to change the tire. First off, I've never jacked a car by myself let alone changed it on the Subaru. Guy promised, "to walk me through it. However, it would probably take me an hour versus 20 minutes if he did it." I wasn't too keene on jacking a car/changing a tire in the dark so Guy drove down from Paris to Dallas to change it for me. After having only been home for about 40 minutes.  I was really grateful and it ended up being a good thing he came down because the tire nuts were so tight he had to jump on the tool that loosens them. After unscrewing them he didn't think I would have been able to do it by myself it.

Our new table!
For Valentine's Day he built found online the plans to build an AKC spec sized table for agility. This way Finn and I didn't have to keep training with the ottoman! He researched it out and then ordered all the supplies. He ended up going camping with the boy scouts and then was going out of town. He wanted us to have it sooner than later. So after his busy and long weekend he started building the table. It took him about an hour and a half to build the table. It turned out really nice!!! Finn and I have enjoyed being able to use it.

I'm so grateful to have a hardworking, patient husband that looks for small ways to serve me even when it's not the most convenient time for him.
