Honey do list (NGC)
« on: August 14, 2015, 01:51:42 PM »
Why is that wives think that we are plumbers, carpenters, mechanics and what ever trade required to do their "little" projects?
I didn't expect her to be a gourmet chef when we got together.

Men marry women thinking that they will always stay the same.

Women marry men with plans to change them into what they really want ....

She must see some idle hands.  Make yourself busy doing what YOU want to to do.

Got one of those ones that can't sit still. Has to be doing something all of the time. Me, I'm a lazy old fart.

Because you've proved yourself competent at these tasks,  She will be there to supervise to see that it will be done to her satisfaction and on her schedule.

An older friend in Jacksonville was told to get out of the house. Apparently, within 9 months of retirement, he had repainted the entire house, inside and out. Had redone the yard, planted flowering bushes. After his last project, several years ago, (when I met him) he was told to get a hobby or a girlfriend. He picked up golf. At least he had a few years before cancer disabled him.

And they both are wrong.  Neither happens.

This thread is funny, and right on time!

I/we are currently in the process of remodeling the basement.  Wife's been an excellent helper.  She's been there assisting pretty much every step of the way. (Plumbing, electrical, framing, Sheetrock, (Yeah, carrying those 12" sheets down the basement stairs was a real ball!).  Now that I'm taping, she's been staying out of the way.  Mostly picking up the mess after me.  She gets a little antsy, and wants things done in a timely matter.  Always has to be doing something.  Very structured.

Me?  I'm like Dean.  Lazy!

Last year I was painting the side of the house. Stinking hot day, Saturday, could have been doing something fun. Got going early, finished about 5pm, knackered but happy. My dear darling wife gets home, says nothing but grabs my brush and heads off saying "you missed a bit". 

Pretty strained few hours followed that a bit of gratitude could have avoided. She has learned now to think a bit more about my view of things before commenting though  :azn:
