Trailbum:<br /><br />Heckuva story. I presume he didn't get the boat, too. Right? ;-)<br /><br />This thread reminds me of the old bumper sticker: "My wife told me if I go fishing one more time, she's going to leave. God, I'll miss her!"

Re: My wife !

Hi BayStLouis,<br /> Yeah, it was a real BUMMER at the time, but I can laugh about it now. Fortunately, I didn't have a boat back then. Heck... she wouldn't even let me buy the secondhand canoe I wanted. I feel like I've been paroled!!!

Re: My wife !

I had to sell my boat that I loved when I got divorced from my first wife. <br /><br />Geez I miss that boat!!! <br /><br />Believe it or not, I painted the house and the boat that year! Moral of the story is, the house or the boat have nothing to do with it, I would have rather been outside painting the house than inside with her. And it was summer in Florida! That kinda says it all. <br /><br />Got a good one this time though, she loves boating and fishing as much as I do!!

Re: My wife !

I'm thinkin that the paint brush will fit in a womans hand also. If she wants the house painted, let her do it.<br /><br />Recalls a time my wife went out and bought a swing set for our boy. She happened to buy it on a day that I was going to the river all night to fish for flatheads. My buddy still gives me a hard time about my wife standing out in the yard putting the swing set together as we drove off with a cold beer in our hand. Maybe I am just lucky.

Re: My wife !

There is another way to to things - together.<br />Paint the house together.<br />Take care of the boat together.<br />Take a brake and make lunch together.<br />Have a beer together.<br />Have fun together and do not so fun things together too.<br /><br />J.B, sometimes I think of what you wrote. I hope it wasn't from personal experience. I think we all got the message loud and clear. At least I did.<br /><br />Regards<br />Bear

Re: My wife !

I like your post, Bear.<br /><br />Unfortunately, it was my personal experience to let my wife go. . . By the time I woke up and realized what I had given up, she was married to someone else. After more than 20 years, she inhabits my dreams as though she were still beside me.<br /><br />Count your blessings, fellows. It may be popular to talk like a jerk about your wife, just don't think like one.<br /><br />Red sky at night. . .<br />JB

Re: My wife !

JB...I don't talk about my wife like a jerk. I love and cherish her. <br /><br />Unfortunately she is not the mother of my children. It is possible to marry the WRONG woman. I live your advice every day now that I have found the right one.<br /><br />I am sorry for your loss.

Re: My wife !

Bear, I'm with you for the most part...<br /><br />but paint the house together ?????<br /><br />My wife and paint just don't mix. She painted the lounge walls, doors, radiators,sockets, light switches,carpets curtains and one of our children !!!!<br /><br />Never again !<br /><br />Next thing I know I am basking in my male superiority and showing he how it should be done on the remaining rooms.<br /><br />Have I been had ?

 

[Trailbum]

Re: My wife !

Yes Philby... You been HAD!!!! My second wife uses that tactic. When she finally gets tired of asking me to do something, she'll start on it herself. I always jump right in and take over the job to make sure it's done right. It works for her every time!!!! I CAN'T complain about her though, she hasn't said a word about the three outboards (1 in pieces) residing in the basement. She's a KEEPER!!!!

Re: My wife !

It was my wife who made it possable for me to own a boat. she keeps me in line and out of trouble. I will paint whatever she needs.

Re: My wife !

Wow, you guys are funny, but I tend to agree with mikeandronda, my wife not only allowed me to buy a boat, she paid for it, SO, she gets anything painted she wants, and I plan to get at it any day now, yup, any day now,,,, you see I'm a lifer government employee, I know every excuse ever written,,,,,,,,,,

Re: My wife !

A wife is a precious thing. <br />For the love she will give without even asking for any in return.<br />For the support she will give without asking for any in return.<br />For the company and committment she will devote to you and the children.<br />For the friendship she will give to you in the dark hours.<br />For the understanding to let you make mistakes.<br />For the sincere way she'll listen to your stories even when she thinks you're wrong!<br />But mostly for being there all the time, and asking only that you trust her, love her, and be honset with her.<br />Each day I kiss my partner as if we've just met, I feel like the luckiest person alive. She loves me and I will never do anything to ruin that trust and friendship. You see My wife is not only my wife, she's my best friend as well.<br />Whats even better is that I know she feels the same about me.<br />Not bad after 25 years...............<br />Ross

Re: My wife !

happily married for 15+yrs, and there's a sign<br />hangin in my kitchen that says; "if mamma ain't<br />happy, ain't noboday happy".<br />as JB suggested, vinyl siding & AL trim.<br />never have to paint again! but then they'll find<br />something else that needs tending....<br />better go now, promised I'd touch up the kitchen<br />while she was gone with the kids
