Wife retalliated over new yak
 
Well i bought my second yak at the oex sale yesterday. My wife acted ok about it until we went out today and purchased a new dining set, sofa and cocktail table. Passive aggression at its finest. To her credit we did need it, just a funny way to respond to my yak purchase. At least I'm off the hook for valentines day.

The new dining set will not match the floor, so next is new carpet/tile/hardwood.

The floor will now not match the drapes, so new drapes will be on their way.

And of course - the china will not match the drapes, so there's a new purchase.

AND ... the dining room and it's new decor just doesn't look right next to the Living Room set,,,, I figure it won't be over for a year or two and appx $10k :)

The only thing left for our house now are things that I want. Like a kitchen remodel and I dont think shes ready for that. I can only imagine how she's gonna act when I buy my hobie, good thing we just bought her a new car.

I have never experienced this kind of behavior.

Better to be broke with a happy wife than rich with a pissed off one

It's sorta funny how that stuff escalates. Last month I took 2 totally low budget hard core 4 day trips to baja. Spent about $200 in all. 8 days of vacation the way I like to vacation. That's not my wifes style. For her 8 days she's talking about a week in europe, s. america, or japan.
200 * 10 minimum. $2000 could last me a year in Mex. Mike

That's some funny sh*t!!!!

I went to Cabo a few years ago and when I got home we had a an entirely new dining room set from linen to cups. When she picked me up at LAX.......

Her: How did it go?

Me: Man was it awesome! I landed and released five marlin, caught and landed two Dorado

Her: That's nice, I have a surprise for you when we get home

My thoughts: YES! She missed me and I'm getting some as soon as I get home

The look on my face when I walked in: :eek:
