Times Are Changing, Women Are Doing Things Now
Posted By Brad on March 10, 2010
In all seriousness, I am very appreciative of everything my beautiful wife does for me, for her, and for us. She’s definitely the one that keeps our ship sailing straight and forward and not allowing it to get distracted by beer, big shiny televisions, and dirty floors. But something really strange has happened this week.
It all started on Monday when she decided that she was going to paint the guest room. I kind of thought to myself, ok, we’ll see how long this goes and if she’s really serious. Sure enough she went to the garage and grabbed all the necessary equipment and began the task of painting our sweet intergalactic guest bedroom…..
……all while the entire time I sat on the couch, drank a beer and watched conference basketball tournaments. Not once, did she ask for help.
This has been going on for the entire week and I must say I could definitely get used to this! Not that I’m a pig or a rude, selfish, unwilling to help husband, but mainly because I enjoy not having to do ALL the home improvement projects. I do just about every project you can imagine, and my wife helps (when and as long as she wants) and I never judge or ask more from her. But it is REALLY nice, taking a break from home improvement projects for a bit and let someone else take the lead.
Having her posses the drive to start and complete a project without me has been awesome on a few different levels and I must say that I am grateful, proud, and a little buzzed (either from the beer or from my wife’s drive and independence).
