OMG---- guys, this morning I ran out to the garage to find a hammer. Now, our garage is off to the side of the house and I rarely go out there; it's pretty much hubby's domain; I just rarely need to go out there for anything.

Well, the last two nights, he's been going out there after dinner, saying he had to get stuff ready for a big job he's working on (he's an electrician). And I've gone to bed early both nights with headaches.

This morning, I go out and see this big... thing... and walk around the front of it... and my jaw just hit the floor. I ran back in for the camera and got one quick shot... didn't want him to wake up and see I'd found his surprise.



He's making me a new enclosure for my 2 ball pythons!!! I've been pouring over the internet and ads for the last month, trying to find an affordable enclosure that was at least 4 x 2 x 2... (they're in a 55 gallon tank now and it's just too small) and been frustrated that I couldn't find one that was in my budget. I haven't measure this, but eyeing it, it looks 4 x 3 x really tall!!!!!! :-)

I never asked him to make me one because one, he's been so busy, and two, I really do wear him out with animal stuff... it's always honey, fix the fence, get me hay, fix the posts, build this, build that... and the animals are totally my thing, not his. He'd be thrilled if we had no animals, but, he totally tolerates them for me. So I was in no way going to ask him to build one more thing...

He's a good guy. I'm keeping him. This will be the best birthday present ever!!!!! (Well, at least, the best birthday present this year!!!! LOL) Just had to share because I'm bursting here!!!
