My wife and I were talking about the money we made for the garage sale and what percentage of the Canada trip this money actually paid for. She may have, and I can't say for sure, coaxed it out of me that it has been a running joke that for years she and another Couts wife (unnamed) could have been misinformed as to the actual cost of this trip. Now, my wife has known for years, apparently, the other wife has not.
It all went down Saturday night when my wife started a conversation like this...hey! Did you know there is an ongoing joke with this Canada Trip group about us thinking for years the trip cost xxx dollars!? Well apparently the joke was still going because "a day late" was mighty pissed and so was his wife. They were mad at two very different people.
Well, it snowballed from there because I told Sandy I should take 1500 with me knowing I would bring money back. Well Dad says "it has never cost that." Now my wife is pissed at me because she thinks I am a liar and am trying to get extra money. I got that straightened out. I am not sure how things got spun in Zoar but there is a pretty good chance I am going to have to buy Aaron something nice at Young's.

It's Sunday. I'm not sure The Lord would appreciate my response.
ReplyDeleteMom's sermon today was on Trust. I hope you learned something about building something like this by telling your wife the truth.
ReplyDeleteSounds like we hsve a front runner for the WTF award and possibly a top bunk in the back cabin.
ReplyDeleteI know, right? Who doesn't tell their wife how much this trip costs? He won't mind it back there. :)
DeleteMy wife has to pay for my trip so she knows exactly how much it cost. keeps thing simple that way.
