Huh? Are you saying she would be happier with a Dyson?

I bought my wife a palm sander for Mother's Day years ago... (She was going on about wanting to re-finish the oak butcher block kitchen table...)

I'm STILL paying for that one... :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:



P.S. The table came out GREAT!:D

I actually did give my wife a Kirby vac one year for Christmas. :rant-rave:
My hospital bill was over $10,000.:(

Not surprised. Getting one of those things removed from your rear ain't easy. (I almost said "that it really sucks", but I thought better of it.)

I bought mine a broom and dustpan.
Saved money that way.
Not only does it clean without using electricity ........
She can ride it when the moon is full.

Another time I spent a month in the hospital was when the wife was using a broom.

I said: Why don't you get a two seater next time?" :22yikes:

There was no next time. :cry:

It was all I could do to keep my mouth shut seeing my dad had gotten my mom a scale for Christmas, and was actually excited about it thinking he’d chosen an awesome gift. My poor hubby got an earful after my dad left… “Don’t you ever ever ever …!”
