i wear the pants...or at least i'm earning them.

for those of you who don't know, jeff had surgery on thursday. he had a lovely little growth on his knee that started to bother him after his stp bike ride this summer; on thursday they removed the little bugger. jeff is going to be off his feet for a little while. he should be walking normally within a week, but until then, i'm in charge! today i mowed the lawn, all by myself. i know,  you're all truly amazed. i don't know if i'm going to regret posting this, because now all those husbands out there are aware that it can be done by a woman. it took me a while and i'm sure it's not half as good as jeff could have done (cough cough), but it's liberating none the less. i also washed the car, planted a rosemary bush, took out the trash, turned the compost, killed an enormous black widow and now i'm relaxing with a beer. my, how the roles have reversed. this is what jeff has been up to for the passed few days (refer to photo). lots of video games, movies and the always interesting internet to examine. other then that, everything is going along. school is good and very busy. earlier this week i was thinking that perhaps a 24 year old should be doing something that is less stressful, like maybe i should be a part time barista or a server at a restaurant. teaching is sure taking up a lot of my time. maybe i'll go into landscaping, i have experience, you know.
