“2. Chores. When your wife gives you a chore, take some time to check it out. Take a day researching it on the internet. Order something - Anything. Take two days ‘waiting’ on the part(s). Take a day gathering the tools together and ‘schedule’ the repair. By this time maybe she’ll have forgotten about it”
Wife: Oh that’s okay, Honey, I’ll just call The Guy.
Said chore gets done quick one way or the other. Peace and love
I’d tell her “That’s fine by me if you’re paying.”
I’ve been calling ‘the guy’ for a lot of years now. Lol. Beats me doing it.
