Wife retalliated over new yak - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

YakMedic · 02-13-2011, 06:44 PM

Well i bought my second yak at the oex sale yesterday. My wife acted ok about it until we went out today and purchased a new dining set, sofa and cocktail table. Passive aggression at its finest. To her credit we did need it, just a funny way to respond to my yak purchase. At least I'm off the hook for valentines day.

Brace Yourself.......

She's not finished yet.

maui jim · 02-13-2011, 06:58 PM

Their never finished............

The new dining set will not match the floor, so next is new carpet/tile/hardwood.

The floor will now not match the drapes, so new drapes will be on their way.

And of course - the china will not match the drapes, so there's a new purchase.

AND ... the dining room and it's new decor just doesn't look right next to the Living Room set,,,, I figure it won't be over for a year or two and appx $10k

LOL your new yak just cost you 5000 dollars... LOL

The only thing left for our house now are things that I want. Like a kitchen remodel and I dont think shes ready for that. I can only imagine how she's gonna act when I buy my hobie, good thing we just bought her a new car.

I have never experienced this kind of behavior.

Better to be broke with a happy wife than rich with a pissed off one

taggermike · 02-14-2011, 08:44 AM

It's sorta funny how that stuff escalates. Last month I took 2 totally low budget hard core 4 day trips to baja. Spent about $200 in all. 8 days of vacation the way I like to vacation. That's not my wifes style. For her 8 days she's talking about a week in europe, s. america, or japan.
200 * 10 minimum. $2000 could last me a year in Mex. Mike

jorluivil · 02-14-2011, 12:03 PM

That's some funny sh*t!!!!

I went to Cabo a few years ago and when I got home we had a an entirely new dining room set from linen to cups. When she picked me up at LAX.......

Her: How did it go?

Me: Man was it awesome! I landed and released five marlin, caught and landed two Dorado

Her: That's nice, I have a surprise for you when we get home

My thoughts: YES! She missed me and I'm getting some as soon as I get home

The look on my face when I walked in:
