You know, because I like following directions. But then...I thought...is this a test? Does he really, really want the women folk not to read this post? He's just testing us, right? It's a test, I bet. He says he wants us to leave, but he's just saying that so we WILL read it, simply out of curiously. Or defiance. I mean, tell US what to do? Please. So, I assumed it was a test. I didn't want to FAIL. So I read the post.<br /><br />Did I pass? Please tell me I passed. I hate to fail.Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04446770591516588794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-21056093970800027852014-07-24T12:12:56.246-04:002014-07-24T12:12:56.246-04:00I had no idea we women were so difficult!

I decided many years ago that "tests" and playing games just waste time.<br /><br />When I want a present, I email my husband the link to the item on Amazon. I've gotten beautiful camera equipment that way...and I always thank him profusely for being such a great gift giver. I also take out the trash myself and never ask him how any piece of clothing looks on me, because I'm handicapped myself that way. I'd wear dots and stripes in the same outfit...<br /><br />He thanks me by never complaining about anything I cook and acts enthusiastic even when I fix garden burgers for dinner three times in the same week.<br /><br />It used to be different with my first husband...I do think you get wiser as you get older. :-)Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-90198522715959640152014-07-23T18:48:12.003-04:002014-07-23T18:48:12.003-04:00For some reason, this reminds me of the Roseanne e...For some reason, this reminds me of the Roseanne episode where Roseanne gave Dan glamour shots of herself for their 20th anniversary, and Dan gave Roseanne a bathrobe.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-21777788045368366402014-07-23T17:50:16.159-04:002014-07-23T17:50:16.159-04:00Lol JoeH I know what you mean....I hate taking tes...Lol JoeH I know what you mean....I hate taking tests!!!Joe Ormerodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03337984962516170189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-74242364225378921422014-07-23T17:42:44.108-04:002014-07-23T17:42:44.108-04:00Sadly, you are mostly right.

WHY does my husband pull a HUGE green outdoor bag from the box to go around the house collecting trash?! Drives me crazy. WHY can't he get a tall kitchen bag that will more than adequately hold all the small bits of trash from the small bins?! What a waste of a good bag. ching ching ching I try to catch it (1/4 full) before it goes outside to the big 'ol nasty can, to empty its contents into the kitchen or garage trash bags in use that have space, then fold it and put it back. As long as there is nothing "wet" in it, it's good for an outdoors task later. <br /><br />Okay... I needed to get that off my chest.

Cook breakfast, help with laundry, and watch the expenditures for things like "salon" "spa" and "nutrition" so you don't sound contrived when asking if she's done something different.
