Like say resurfacing the kitchen bench (AlPep Koa thank you very much) or installing flooring over the current perfectly good floor (still looking for the right guitar there). Then you pounce: I'll agree to your xxx if you let me get another guitar. When will men learn... When YOU want something Fun, you have to get HER something FUN! WANT, NOT need!!!!! Jewelry, something that means something to her, a romantic weekend away together, an evening out dancing - telling her how much she means to your life! Nothing to do with housework, or cleaning!!! UGH!!!!! No toasters, ovens, mops, blenders, flooring, vacuums, weed-wackers, UGH!!!!  Well I DID just take her out to California for our Anniversary. And I DID arrange for the grandparents to watch the kids for the whole week so we could get away solo. Now if only I can find that damn piece of paper with my signature on it...

That didn't work because I drive it far more than she does. We rented a 911 on our trip up to Sonoma and Napa. How do you fit the Ovations into the "frunk" on your wife's? | ||
