      After doing a major remodel on Master bath, we're doing a minor remodel on guest bath and the conversation goes something like this; She: Where's the paint: Me: In the shed She: I need a screw driver Me: I get one for her, we have plenty of them. I should have known what was coming at this point. She: Do we still have a roller Me: I go out and 6 inches from where she's looking I pull one out. I get everything set up for her and I hear a racket and see her dragging in a tarp. Later She: Ok you can cut in now. (Cut in = Brush around edges where roller can't get, in a bathroom that's about 50%) Me: I thought this was your deal? She: You know I can't cut in, I'll roll when you're done! Me: DOH

      You should rope her into changing the car's oil.

        I can't paint, period. When I do it's terrible. Works every time.

          I can't do that, I've been doing remodeling work all my life. In fact that's how we first started dating I helped her paint her house.

            I learned a long time ago that the secret to a successful relationship is to pick your battles. This is not one of them!

                    just finished my master bath and bedroom - but I just pointed, waited and wrote checks. Still have a few items hanging on, but my contractor will be back to tie them up. Next up - 3 other bathrooms which I will have to do myself or win the lottery.

                      We totally gutted the house, replumbed and partial rewire. It's been two years and we're almost done.

                            I am the money handler, mechanic and all round handy man. Wife does most of the rest. I just can't paint worth a darn. She also doesn't like the way I wash dishes and clothes so it evens out.
