On our way to buy a door.

We got this picture Thursday before we headed out to Lawton to buy a new side door for the garage.  The door out there is so rickety.  It has needed to be replaced for about 5 years and with each year it gets more desperate.  About 5 years ago I put a new lock on it (of course one of my rigging jobs), and it takes a hammer to get it unlocked or locked, now.  So, we rarely use that door and it's a real inconvenience.  So, Lee has found a guy to put a new door in, so we thought we'd better have the door.  Folks around here come right when they get ready, so we'd better be ready when he gets here!  So, we had a day off to Lawton and had lunch at the Olive Garden.  We bought the deal where you buy an entree and get one to take home.  So, we've eaten 3 times on those dinners and we've got one left to share with Dorothy after church tomorrow.  It's a great deal!

Today the warm weather was a huge temptation.  I had to go work in the flowers!  Lee is such a dear, he came out and insisted that we work side by side!  We worked until we both felt like falling.  I'm so sore, now, but I'm hoping a good night's sleep will fix that.  The back yard looks awesome!  We'll do the front yard when it's not so windy.  We started out there, but it was cold, so we went to the back where the house protected us from the wind.  I'm still in awe of Lee working out there with me the  whole time; what huge help and even more of an honor.  I thank God for him and his 'total partnering' attitude.  By the way, the freeze got lots of irises, but there are still going to be lots.  Woohoo!
