I then said I'm buying a new bike. She said ok. :eek: Came home 2 days later with a new bike. After 17 years of my wanting a new bike and her saying after we get this done. She thought I was kidding. It took her 2 months to go out in the shed to look at the bike. :rofl2:

So I know about "happy wife = happy life", but here's also another trick I learned early on:

Ask for forgiveness, not permission. But, be prepared to get an earful of nagging, maybe a few punches depending on the severity, and possibly no "fun time" for a few days, maybe a few weeks.

I've always wanted a Shiba Inu and for about 5 years, I kept asking and asking, but got the usual "after this or after that". One day, I found the perfect puppy and brought him home. I got in so much trouble with the wifey, but she couldn't resist the puppy. I still had to sleep on the couch, while he got to sleep on the bed. And now, I am in the market for a female Shiba Inu :ugh2:

Didn't sleep well last night. :shakes head: Wifey threw me a curve ball last night about the bathroom remodel job. She wants to add a few new things that I didn't plan on. So, I just laid there trying to figure out on how to do it. :shakes head:

Rusty, Rusty, Rusty, when will we ever learn? When the wifey says she wants X, Y, and Z, she really means she wants the whole alphabet. If she asks for an inch, be prepared to give her a foot. Okay, the last sentence totally doesn't sound right.

First wifey. I told myself that when I make top rate at the power plant. That I would get a new truck. She told me that I had to wait a year or two. So wifey wanted a new Grand Cherokee. We go shopping around and find what she wants. Sitting in the salesman's office. Doing the paperwork. I was looking at a sales brochure that had a PowerWagon on the front. They just finished up with her paperwork. She's ready to drive her new Jeep home. "I said not so fast. It's my turn. You got new Jeep. I get new truck". So I ordered my PowerWagon right then. Boy, was she pissed, but couldn't do a thing about it. She knew that I wasn't happy about her buying a new vehicle at that time. Her old Jeep was 4 years old. My old truck was 10 years old. I still have that PowerWagon, and she's dead.

All women are like that. Once I explain how things work, and what needs done, and the expected outcomes. I get my way when doing projects around the house.

You should have been around when I restored an old Ducati 851SP motorcycle. My garage is in the basement of my house. When I painted the bike parts. I had paint flumes through out the whole house. :rofl2: First wifey was high for a week. :rofl2:

BTW, what is your specialty area?

It's a pretty technical area of law; the specific NAICS code is "pushing in the sh*t of anything that gets in my way."

Up before the chickens start crowing :ugh2:
Got my morning coffee & have treated the puss’s :tup:
Planning to pick up some synthetic underlayment for the roof & install it today :tup:
Then I’ll let it sit while I finish boarding everything else up & house wrap it :eek:
Little Feller was helpful yesterday working on some cyclone fencing & passing me things up on roof as needed, as I rigged up a rope to pull things up :icon14::ugh2:

Good Hand Washing Tuesday Morning All. Texas starts to open back up on Friday slowly but surely. :happydance: Just hope that people use common sense when it does. :tup: Going to be another nice day here in Austin today with a high of 92* partly cloudy with a 10% chance of rain with a chance of severe storms tonight. :eek: Just a few things on the list for today so time to get rocking. Have a good one guys, stay Safe, stay Positive and Keep Washing those Hands. :tup:

You guys are too easy. AFter doing, doing, and doing while I get nothing for the special project I just flat out went on strike. I am still holding my picket sign. If the wifey wants something done she better factor in the labor side of it too. I am done with that crap. I have enough stuff to take care of.
