Pulled out a stack of floaty kits from the stash yesterday afternoon to decide what to build and try and get finished for this GB, my wife saw the pile and then the fight started. This is not going to go smoothly.
Probably didn't help that I replied to her "what are they" with "well you ask what the point of having them is if I don't build any" and followed "her but why have you pulled out so many" with "I pulled out all the crushed boxes to see how much damage there is" She wasn't appreciative of me pointing out that putting heavy boxes of tools etc. on top of fragile plastic storage boxes full of kits doesn't end to well, or that she wanted them away somewhere out of sight, doesn't justify damaging my stuff. Pointing out that I used to keep them in a store room on shelves and in cabinets that we don't have anymore didn't help my case either. Being right is not enough and often makes the situation worse.
Anyway now they are out and when she is not looking I will attempt to find the box that has my tools and paints so I can make a start. Just need to workout where to do the build since she gave two indoor tables, an out door setting and our folding table to her daughter. Adding insult to injury, the daughters boyfriend is using one of the tables as a work bench and another they share as a hobby table under their veranda. My wife thinks this is great and asks me why I don't do something like that, well it is a bit hard to when she has given them all of the tables, my tool cabinet, all of my power tools because they are living on our converted garage which is where she believes those things belong while all I have is the veranda which apparently is not suitable for such things as they look untidy.
If you don't hear from me again its because my decision to use the dinner table has not gone well.
