Mrs.E. rarely asks me to do stuff anymore. The honey-do list has been

Tell me how you accomplished that. Be specific. I have to know. :-)

It's pretty simple here at Rancho Cracker Box Palace.

I'm a putz and everytime I get involved in a project, I always end up
at the hospital with some kind of injury.

She eventually gave up and now hires professionals to do the job. :)

She relented about twelve years ago when I wanted to redo the roof.
Everything was going along fine until I managed to fall off the roof -
fortunately into some overgrown bushes, but I still broke my wrist.

Other than doing the lawn every spring and fall, she hasn't asked
again.

Maybe I'll have to try that method.
The wife knows I'm a belt & suspenders type of person when it comes to my
personal safety so she has no quams about me climbing a high ladder or
working on a roof. (I have an industrial type safety harness and use it
anytime my ladder exceeds 15 feet or I'm on a steep roof over one story
high)
