In The Doghouse! What's New?
 
Yesterday afternoon my wife took our two daughters early in the afternoon to thier Dentist Appointments.
It is hard getting to thier Dentist at the best of times but there is construction going on & it is a nightmare for traffic so my wife took them on the bus.
When she got home about dinner time she asked me, "Do I look old?"
I thought, "Oh no, are we feeling a little insecure."
"No" I said. She doesn't, she has about three gray hairs in her head.
"
"Why do you ask?" I said. Bad move!
She said someone came and said to her,

"What beautiful Grandchildren you have!!":shocked:

I don't know when I started laughing or when I stopped, but suddenly the air temperature plunged about 10 degrees!
There was a distinct chill in the air!
Apparently, women take these comments more seriously than we men!:whistle

Was I wrong to laugh?:hmmm
It was an absurd comment & whoever said it needs to visit thier local optician!
It is a no brainer, she looks young, look at the avatar!:whistle

BTW Does anyone have a spare bedroom I could use for a while?:hmmm


:ursofunny:ursofunny:ursofunny----What got me into trouble!:aaa

In retrospect... it appears you should have grabbed a club of some kind and stormed out the door to "take care" of this individual at which time she would have told you that there was not need for that...

In a situation like this it generally requires a large over reaction on your part to move her to "good grief... it's not that big of a deal" mode.

LOL... Well... as you know... it is actually "hindsight is 20/20" but I think you may be onto something with your version too.

Notice the word *treats*...

No treats are generally forthcoming when one is in the doghouse.

If you lived near here I would send you over a care package though. :)

Sometimes a good laugh is just what you need.

Somewhere in the future you will both have a good laugh over it...

Guys, I have been married for over 50 years, and it has been a good marriage, but there are times that there just is no right answer and no right reaction that we can offer. And, the more we try to explain, the deeper we dig the hole that we are sinking in.

P.S. Remember the advice of Ephesians 4:26

Whatever you do, do NOT go out and buy your wife anti-aging moisturizing products for Christmas. :D

Oh my dear Boy !!


That reminds of many years ago when my dear late husband Horace, well i asked him which dress I should wear to the watchnight service.

I had a blue one and one that was black, we did not wear any Red dresses.

Horace must have not been thinking well that day.

Horace told me to wear neither of them, said I was to big in the Caboose to fit into either one of them rightly.

That was the only night in our many years of marriage that my Horace slept alone in the parlor.

Oh my ..what memories.

Ron! You are obviously not as smooth as my husband is. Last week I told him I was getting gray hair. I said, "Look!!" He leans over my head and says, "I don't see any gray hair." I said, "Put on your glasses!!!" He puts them on, looks again and says, "My God! I love older women!!"

:toofunny

Good save Mr. Pressing-On!!!! No dog house for you tonight!!!! :kiss

We were having pancakes the other day & one of them looked a little burnt.
My wife said, "those aren't burnt, they're fully cooked!"

I don't think I had any food in my mouth when I burst out laughing but I did laugh out loud!

Why are women so touchy?

Apparently you might want to look into having a filter installed between your laugh reflex and your mouth brother...

That particular action appears to get you in plenty of trouble.
