Well, hubby liked the plants so much, that he wanted more. So 2 days later, we went back to Lowes for more flowers and potting soil. This was only supposed to be for the pots we already had, but he said he wanted some hydrangeas, too. Told him our pots wouldn't hold those, but he said he wanted them in the ground in front of the porch. I told him it was going to be enough to just get the pots planted and he POUTED. Said he would help (with one arm in a sling!!!). I told him he'd have to wait for the bushes, that I was not going to do them. And that I was just going to unload the stuff and plant it the next day when I was more rested (still sore from the day before planting activities).

He accused me of 'putting off till tomorrow....', a favorite jibe of his directed at me. Grrrr. So he was all pissy (almost childish) and I was borderline mad because of it. I'm doing all the work and he's complaining. I planted it all that evening after pulling weeds out of the pots and adding new potting soil, then watered it all, hosed off the porch and retired to the back room and my book. Didn't sleep well for 2 days afterwards from doing all the extra physical work. Have to pace myself and I didn't do it this week too well with him being laid up and me having to do all the extra stuff. It helped being off work for 4 days, but this week will be harder. I'll have to do 40 hrs plus the extra stuff he can't do. No planting anything this coming weekend....for sure.
