Sorry Getter-Done, but you may not be smiling for long. Once the wife figures it out your toast. Remember the old saying " A happy wife is a happy life".

I will smooth it over like Butter on Toast.
I do take care of her needs above my Projects.
So She can and will complain .
At the end of Each Day . She know I take care of her First.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Finished up a couple of 72 bedsides for a fellow. I cut them down to short ones for him. He has done a nice job on the rest of it and his bed was way too far gone. But since you cannot find short beds, you do what you got to do.

Getter-Done, you have life and the wife figured out. I just hope I can say that when I retire. Maybe you ought to write that book after all so I can learn it before I get there.
