    I think the trick here is to find a balance. This shouldn’t be a one and done. But rather, an opportunity for the slow drip that lasts a lifetime. Would you rather have $10,000 today, or a penny a day with compound interest? 
     

    Start small. “Hey Wingman, remember those two KK’s? Howsabout cooking me...[insert favorite food item here] with a nice bottle of wine?” Wingman eagerly complies. Being Wingman, he thinks you’re singing his tune.

    Soon it becomes, “Hey Wingman, remember those two KK’s? Howsabout I remodel [pick your favorite room in the house]?” Again, Wingman complies. After all, he gets some benefit from this as well. He’s also only half paying attention because his brisket hit the stall and he’s freaking out about where to buy pink butcher paper.

    Keep working it another year or so. “Hey Wingman, remember those two KK’s? There’s this really cool $5M cottage in Malibu. Comes with a Lamborghini.” By now, Wingman doesn’t even realize what’s happened. He nods up and down, drool dripping from his chin. That’s from the tri tip sandwich he’s finally mastered. 

    This is called gaslighting. Look around. It works.

    (Cue slow clap 👏...👏...👏...)
    Your brain works in amazing ways.

  2. So you may be familiar with my husband @Wingman505 you may also know we just bought a 32” big bad! You may have also read that he planned to bug me until I agreed to a 23” too... well, it happened much faster than we all would have anticipated 😱 Just got off the phone with Dennis and everything (super nice and great to talk to him, by the way!)...

    So on to my question - what is an actual award for being the coolest, most understanding, most unpretentious, super smart, and wicked funny wife? A gold star and copious amounts of appreciation ain’t gonna cut this one folks!

    Suggestions for cool crap for me... and go! 🤣

    Wingman , "I also got impatient and got the KK off of the pallet with a small assist from my tiny wife. "    and Christine said," hmmm... Interesting. That's not exactly how I remember that."  :grin:

    Lol! Actually, this time, it’s an accurate statement! I provided *very* little to no assistance in getting the KK off the pallet. 🤣
