 . . .my husband starts in  I feed every morning at 5 am and now on your 
 days to feed they have to stand out there suffering until as late as 
 6;30...

Wow, a husband that feeds for you!?!?You ARE a pampered woman.   ha 
ha.

I can come home in the morning from working a 12 hour shift, half 
comatose, falling asleep in my minivan for 20 minutes before I even make it 
into the house, and there's not even the remote idea in the air that 
*someone* will be kind and do chores for me that particular morning before 
he has to be at work at NOON.Nope.   Not going to happen.Same when I 
get the flu, etc.   I'm like the mailman around here when it comes to doing 
chores.   I might be excused from chores if I died -- maybe. . . . : )

  I'm impressed with that Mr. Donny, drawers and all.   : )

I guess I'm lucky too.  Kevin does the morning feed (hay), and I do
the afternoon...though right now that consists of me opening the gate
to the pasture.

Yes, me,too.  The horses are my thing so I do all the chores
concerning them but if I have to be away from home or sick, my husband
is wonderful about feeding and doing whatever needs to be done while
I'm gone.  I think that is very fair.  He also is the one that did the
biggest share of the fencing and getting the place ready for the
horses to be here.  I'm a lucky woman.  Of course, having him willing
to step up when I need him makes me more willing to help him when he
needs things done that are his thing.  I guess that's what marriage
is about.

Okay, to be fair, my husband DID put up all our fencing and built my 
horsebarn.And he usually helps me with most of the hay. But the day 
to day stuff is my mine.  When he had his own horse, he was more willing to 
help out in that respect.   I think this is his way of protesting having 
four horses.

Well, we've only been married for 22 years, so I guess we're still figuring 
the whole marriage thing out yet. . .  ; )

I've been married 32 years and I still am not sure I have it figured
out - the rules keep changing :-)
