FYI...

Things I would do for you if you are my friend/family/neighbor:
Cook you dinner
Watch your kids (even if they're brats)
Drive you to the airport
Help you move
Help you paint
Take care of your house while you're out of town
Go buy Pedialyte for your sick kids because you can't go to the store because you're covered in puke
Many other things, actually most anything you can think of...


Things I won't do for you no matter who you are:
Shovel your landscaping rocks

I hope you are taking pictures of your project. We need to see all the results of all your hard work. If we were there I would help you and I know your dad would even haul the rocks away for you if you wanted them gone. You will deserve something special when you have this all done.
Love U

That is a pain in the aaaaars job!!! Which is why I buried mine with tons of lovely plant friendly dirt and then covered that with mulch!!!

Whine, whine, whine. Maybe your're trying to make me feel guilty because you've done all those things for me....I'll be there next weekend to help....for that, I better be fed well and boozed often.

Notice that of all the comments, I am the only one that said "I will help". Others just want to see pictures - I'll do the work. As long as it doesn't involve bending, lifting, grunting, or sweating - actually, any of those 4 can happen when I try to get off the couch.

Let me get this straight. Jeff is leaving town. I am going to Mpls to work. While I am gone, Ty is coming to Fargo to "help" Shirley....hmmmm something's not right here. Oh, well. If he's offering to paint the kids' rooms when I am gone - go for it.

I'd like to offer Leif's services... he's proven to be really good at shoveling - as he just did 6.5 cubic yards of top soil!!

Well, truthfully he didn't do it all... I did do about .5 of those cubic yards.

Good luck honey. I'm anxious to see what you guys are up to!

If I made you OMG ribeye's with red wine and cowboy smashed taters would you come and help me shovel rock? We might do that next spring! We'd provide the spotted cow or pinot noir.... The kids could help? Flanny.

If I had a beagle and it chased a rabbit until it got caught in the fence and then proceeded to chew all the fur off the said rabbit...would you "remedy" the situation for me?
