I feel your pain pal, hang in there! She didn't happen to throw in a dozen arras or other bonuses when giving orders did she?

I've seen older fellows, who no longer have a spouse, for one reason or another, out there trying to start over and most of them look lost to miserable. Keep your bride, suck it up, and just do what you've got to do. In as tough as it may seem, you'll get threw it. lol

ITS A TRAP!  :readit:  Somethings fishy here women just don't do this unless somethings in it for them..Has she been looking at new clothing,cars,shoes or diamonds lately? Maybe she's got a trip on her mind or better yet all that "Getting on her nerves finally paid off" and she finally gave in and wants you out of the house so she she can have some real peace and quiet...What's your secret? We need advice on how you did this...If it works then we need to have a video of the plan to post in the "How To Forum" for us unexperienced fellas...  :biglaugh:

BE EXTREAMLY CAREFUL on how you receive this offer.  Mine told me to go ahead and order the new Tall Tines longbow I had been wanting (which I did) then next thing you know...she is sportin a full set of braces.  Women are good, and we are stupid.   If I had said NO, then the bow would not be possible either.  Like I said, accept it as an awesome gift, but watch out.  Hey, plus she came away happy as well.  Life ain't to bad sometimes.

Good luck and keep us all informed on what hunt you end up going on.

I'm with the majority here. It's a trap, BUT, id take the bait with a smile and be happily caught in it.

Man this is somewhat mean and a way to get out of town so I'd take the chance if I was in your shoes.   :readit:    :jumper:    :laughing:

I was always told happy wife, happy life.  She needs to talk to my wife and give her some ideas like that too.

When I ordered my next Big Jim bow, the wife didn't even flinch. I thought it strange, but what the heck, I'll take it. Wasn't long before she was carting home a bunch of new stuff for a trip she has been wanting to take. As sweet as she is, I'm sure she was still just daring me to say anything about her purchases. Married life is blissful, as long as Mama is happy. Enjoy your moose hunt, but you might want to be looking over your shoulder for what is to come.
