I really didn't mean to buy it...

Tell you're wife you were out for a walk. And it followed you home. Then say."Can I keep it. Please, Please come on Please." I will take care of it, I will wash it and feed it and take it out a drive it from time to time. Oh, wait most of that is what you say if a dog follows you home

 

[rustystud]

OK now, first you have to admit you have a problem and you need help. Second you must realize you cannot do it on your own. Third .......

 

[patracy]

I don't have a problem. Only my wife has a problem.

Mine swears up and down that I have "stuff" stashed all over SC and GA. She just knows it...........







Well, I do have a CUCV hidden away, but let's just keep that our little secret......

What the Boss Lady don't know won't hurt you, until she finds it.

Nice. It's also nice to having to "answer" to anyone else. Never understood that concept.

I have heard that it is easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission. I don't know, as this definitely does not pertain to me.

I used to tell MB that one of the other guys bought the "new" green truck but eventually she caught on.

Now she just says... "Make me a list of all that stuff and how much it's worth".

I wonder if she's plotting something?

 

[jw4x4]

She is plotting not being taken advantage of. Smart lady.

Sounds to me like a woman with a plan... Be careful if she starts giving you lemonade that has a antifreeze taste to it.

Sounds more like she is plotting a divorce.

Mine gave me a load of crap for the two months we waited till I picked mine up. "What are you gonna do with that. It's to big. The neighbors are gonna hate us......" when I brought it home she asked to go for a ride.... never said a word..... Sunday I wake up working around the house and she said we need to go grocery shopping can we take the deuce? Lol she won't admit it but I know she thinks it's awesome. .....

New truck = new jewelry, it's that easy. She got a new cocktail ring for Valentine's day, I got used 936.

If you think diesel fuel is high try buying hay in bulk.

It costs almost as much to make it as it sells for (speaking as someone who baled and stacked just over 1000 bales last year)...
Perhaps if she had to help bale it she wouldn't be as interested in hayburners (does NOT work in my case, I have to fight to be the one driving the tractor vs stacking hay in the wagon).

I learned long ago to have a "play money" fund and a "household" fund.

Everything I make at my day job goes into the household fund and I tell the wife she can do whatever she wants with it as long as the bills are paid.

That's good, but usually doesn't work. Usually: After 3 weeks she told you "The money is out, the fridge is empty and the children are hungry. WE need more money."

Just to explain things. What little bills we have (I've been working to bust out of debt since we bought our house) are paid first and foremost. The fridge is always filled. And I have no problem buying other things for the family first. (Matter of fact, I spent yesterday shopping with the wife/kids. Course that afternoon I bought some 2.5 ton rockwells LOL. I do understand priorities.

The is a lot to be said for the judicious use of bling bribery. The Boss Lady caught me bidding on HETT's right before her birthday. She got a pair of diamond earrings the day of. Got me out of the chithouse for a few days but there is a GL auction every week.

After seeing the results of the last project I just can't wait to see this one take shape!!opcorn:opcorn:

Well, yesterday I picked up some G-20 tires and PLS wheels. Unfortunately I only have one adapter plate for a wheel right now. But I have a friend that thinks he can have three more to me by the end of the week. A few pics...
