Tbone time to teach Mrs. T-B to do her own laundry. Cut the cord man!

 

 

I spent all weekend way too busy. Just now sitting down and relaxing. 

 

Today we made 4 types of sausage. Thyme, Sweet Italian, Parmesan Basil, and Hawaiian. 

 

I only took a picture of the Hawaiian sausage but made two big pork butts each type of sausage is about 4lbs of meat.

After all these years, the lint-trap is still a mystery, must be cultural man.

We will not let her wreck our laundry equipment, no man!

Also time to let her figure out how to keep gas in her own car. Suggest buying her a roadside kit and jerry can. Remind her to fill up at 1/Many tank and then let her learn. 

She has no clue as to how to calculate mpg or even how to record mileage, sigh Niki-B. ma'am.

Ditto seeing a need, see nothing she man.

Doesn't even pay attention to how much gas she has, blank look and "half" when queried man.

She doesnt need to calculate mpg or mileage. Just needs to learn how to read the gas guage.  Maybe walking to get gas a time or two will trigger the ability?  But you enable her never to remember these things by doing them for her.

Ok I understand the machines. But once she is out are you going to keep taking her clothes in to wash? I know you are trying to keep the piece but stand there with her and show her how to do it. Or tell her to figure it out at the laundry mat if she won't learn with you. 

Take her to the gas station and have her pump gas. That is all she needs to know and all you need to do and then wash your hands of the car. This will be all on her as her new single life does not include you as her servant. 

 

 

I want to add you have been a great soon to be ex husband to her. Most would have booted her out long ago. 

I know I would have. 

It isn't a mystery, is it. All basic adulting stuff.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

She does, because it can tip one off to something wrong with the Mrs.-T-B.-mobile, see Niki-B. ma'am.

She does know, and it doesn't help with the situation, no Niki-B. ma'am.

The ONE time we ran out, we had to call her for a gas can from the garage, sigh Niki-B. ma'am.

She was irritated at having to do so, sigh man.

She has ADD, especially involving cars, sigh Niki-B. ma'am.

This will be one part of her long-stated desire for "freedom!" that will be a surprise, poetic justice man.

Of course, she'll be able to buy the finest laundry machines after getting through with us, grrrr man.
