Ok so I have very little time to work on my car with the new baby in the house. Now to make things worse I had planned on going over and working on the engine this weekend but unfortunately I have been put on a parts purchasing freeze until Christmas and this puts a damper on things (she wants to buy me something for the car but wont tell me what) so here I am sitting with my hands closed because I need several things to get her running but she wont let me.

I love this woman.
 
Dude,with every thing going on in your life right now,be cool,listen,do what she says,and this will all work out.If not,you will never see her naked again,been there,done that.And remember the 2 most important words a man needs say all the time,YES DEAR,mrmopartech
 
If you have a wish-list on Summit, maybe she's getting something from that. That's what my wife and in-laws did last year. Unfortunately, my wife got the thing I wanted least on it, but that's ok, I still think it's cool that she tried, and I never told her.
 

wow.....glad I'm not the only one going through that crap. At least I have a secret paypal account she don't know about, and when I order stuff I have it sent to work.
 
She has been working my buddy SuperT for parts I "need" so everytime I tell him I ordered something he says "dude you are killing me here with this whole christmas present crap your wife is doing to me"
 
Hey do what i did last Christmas. I bought my wife a new Accumark 300 Weatherby and a Leupole Vari X III. And I borrow it from her when I go hunting. And by the way she doesn't hunt!
 
Yep, family comes first. Today was the first day off that I have had for 2 weeks and I won't get another day off until Christmas. I have a ton of work to do on my W100 to do, but my wife wanted to take the kids to Salt Lake City to go see family and go see the Christmas lights in Temple Square. So guess where I spent my day off? I drove the family around and pushed a stroller all day with a smile on my face. :banghead:
 
Love you, its like duct tape! Just remeber that, it saves my butt lol. Just cool it, you only got a few more days and then its worth it :D
 
Who knows you could be getting a RMS alterKation and street lynx setup it could happen
 
NO NO NO NO....c'mon guys get with the program ....the MOST important words in order of importance.
1. I love you no matter what
2. of course i'll watch the kids, you deserve a break
3. Hell no you dont look fat in that, in fact I'm kinda liken it...nudge nudge
4. Of course you're right, you know more about that stuff than I do
5. you take the remote, find us something to watch
6. lets just stay home & cuddle

You remember these simple things and you will never spend a single night on the sofa and your life will never be a DRY life
 
I'm in a pickle here too.

Lots of you know it's been a few years since Santa visited our house; Billy and I haven't exchanged gifts since 2004 (thank you Hurricane Katrina). Well, this year I've been trying to save some money in the paypal account that he didn't know about so I could get him something cool.

A couple weeks ago he found a really sweet old International pickup truck for a good price four miles away. He did some work on a mini chopper for a local kid and sold some parts and was trying hard to get the truck, but he was still a couple hundred short. I surprised him with a paypal transfer to the bank account and the necessary cash to complete the deal. Merry Christmas baby!!! :-D

Whew, I'm covered, I helped get him something cool that he wants.

He calls the guy the night before the transfer and talks for a half hour. He finds out he was misled about the title; it has some serious deal-killing issues that are going to outweigh the cost of the truck, and he changes his mind about buying it and hangs up.

I'm in the basement and hear him upstairs on the phone ... with Summit. Ordering a dual exhaust setup on the debit card. For my Cuda.

It's awesome and everything that he's trying to help me finish my car, but what didn't occur to him was that I now have no cash for his present since he's using it to buy MY present. LMAO!!!!! Anybody want to buy a PSC t-shirt??? I have a 3X I can auction off. :-D

WOMEN!!!! MEN!!!!!!!! Harumph!!! What're we gonna do with 'em???

And she loves you too! I'm sure she's just like the rest of us trying to get you something you really want and need instead of another tie or bottle of Old Spice. :-D
 
After spending nearly 6 years trying to have a child I have absolutely no sympathy for you. Sell the car, if it is taking time away from your new family.

whipped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Pretty-much all work on my cars stops around Thanksgiving. There is so much to do with the family and so little time. The day my hobby takes priority over my family, I will sell them all and go buy a Kia, then another Kia when that one wears out. I'll sell my tools and stop watching Speed and Spike.
10, 15, 20 years from now, you will not regret the time missed with your car.
 
She made me get rid of my first project car.

Kinda hard in your early 20 with kids and no money.

I told her I would have gray hair by the time I finally get to build my dream car......guess what?
I was right.
