Taking my wife for granted

Yesterdy my wife had to go to Indiana for her aunts funeral. My plan was to do a little mowing and take the dog out for a good long ride. We have fifteen acres to mow. I started at 7:30 AM. My wife retired 5 1/2 years ago to take care of our granddaugther while our grandson went through liver cancer treatments and transplant.
My wife always does most of the mowing (I only mow about 3 acres) and says she loves it. But after 8 hours of mowing (about 12 acres) I quit for the day and too tire to ride.
So I fugured I would ride my dog to work today; no again, too sore to move much less than breath.
Talking about taking things for granted; now I'm sure I'll be eating humble pie and have not figured a way out of this one. No way she will let me either. One of the things I hear occassionally is "you don't realize how good you have it." Any words of wisdom?:loony::loony:

I do not have the land that your have for sure but my wife is the same way. She likes to mow because she uses it as a workout. I would just eat some of that humble pie and tell her how right she was. Then move on. lol Pride is a tough one to swallow. :)

Barhopper you won't believe how good I have it. I have three bikes and pretty much anything else I want. This grass cuttting shit sux. If I had to cut it regularily I would sell the place a get a condo.
That won't happen either since I build the home myself.

Sounds like your wife has her hands full even though she is retired. Mowing grass aside...take her out for nice dinner, movie, etc. or whatever her outside of the house interests are. Most women love that stuff as you probably already know!:up:

Also being a retired vet, leads me to the certain things in a bikers life that are not open to nogiation. The bikes stay.
