Ok I've had my coffee so I am better now. I've been installin, check that, tryin to install the slate floors in our house. Well Little Miss Grey Skies, can't decide where she wants the rug insets to be exactly. So I just did it on my own while she was away. Well, THAT WAS THE WRONG THING TO DO !!!.......now she is mad and wont tell me what to change to make her happy........and since it is ungauged she keeps tryin to make all the edges match up to each other. Ok that's a good idea but I aint ever gonna get done if she don't leave me alone....I'm thinkin it's tagteam time......KEVIN !!!....
Give her a roll of blue tape and have her mark it off where she wants them rugs, then tell her she has 24 hours or it won't get done till summer.............. and tell her you're not sure which summer.
If she wants all the stone edges to match up, tell Rae she has to help mix the concrete.

Tell ya what, CP. You pay my plane fare up there and back, feed me and give me a place to stay, and you and I will knock out that job one day while she's gone to work. She can complain all she wants, but it'll be too late

How about a show where they have husbands sneaking around, lying and avoiding Do-It-Yourself projects. They could show him and the wife discussing all the wonderful improvements and then show him drinking away the weekend at the corner bar or hanging out at his friends watching football. Then they could show a guy who starts a dozen different projects and leaves all his tools and materials spread so scattered around the yard that neither he nor his wife can even remember what half the jobs were supposed to be in the first place and nothing ever gets done. Now THATS reality. Another great shot would be the do-it-yourselfer rustling through his garage, truck and shed and then through all the receipts trying to figure out how he's going to return everything and then follow that through to the long line at the Big Box store and the harsh negotiations with the folks at the counter.
You do that and I'll sue for invasion of my privacy.

Re: A new kinda remodeling TV program...


........that's a great offer Kev, but I got up this mornin and she's in the front room layin it all dry and it's lookin good. So guess she'll just be doin all the dry fittin and then I'll stick it all down when she's done............but maybe I should bring ya here fer that anyway, don't think she likes me too much right now. I took a pic of her workin in her jammies and she gave me a real nasty look..............maybe I'll post it later.......

CP, we feel your pain

There are three things that even we can't do together without getting into an argument:
~ laminate, we will argue over board pattern repeat placement;
~ groceries, its okay if he goes off the list but there's hell to pay if I do; and
~ position furniture, when we moved into this house, everything in the living room was spun around several times before we could agree on the final position, likewise, our king-sized bed went back and forth several times before I said the heck with it and let him put it where he wanted.

And we are together 24/7.

D&D

Let me be the first to bring this to your attention. This is an excellent example of why we should proof read our posts.

Guess I'm slow. I read the post and didn't notice anything until T pointed it out.

I should have elaborated, Rusty. Our master bedroom is 9'6 x 18' and we were practically throwing that freaking bed back and forth at each other. It was pretty funny, we just about came to blows over it.
