It's a terrible disease. It renders the husband unable  to keep his wallet closed. It started off with "just paint". What a fool I was to believe her. Learn from my mistake gents, it's NEVER "just paint". :P

I’ve been in yours shoe many times... I get it. I wonder if our wives ever complain about our “cooker issue”?  People are funny ;)

On more than one occasion, I’ve seen my wife’s eyes roll back into her head to the point I wasn’t sure they were gonna return... lol.

I guess I will count my blessings as my Wife is as much of a grill hoarder as I am :) She's a bad influence, an enabler if you will! LOL

Uh huh... I can see a conversation going like this:


Mrs. RG:  Honey I want to buy "X" for the kitchen.

RG: Do we really need it? That's a lot of money.

Mrs. RG: (whispers to self while counting on fingers) Let's see there was that BBQ cooker, and then there was the newer one...

RG: Closes mouth and opens wallet!    :'( :D

I think anyone who's been married over 20 years knows their place.  And those of us who been married over 35 just do what the hell were told.  It's easier that way.
