Yesterday, my wife called me and told me that she does not want to work anymore...I said "OK, no problem"
She then said this..."It will be much easier to handle financially if you stop taking test drives in cars" Now mind you, I only do this when she prompts me to do it. For example, when we had our last Acura MDX (2004 with 75K) she said that she saw a story on the news that cars with over 100k of mileage were more likely to have injuries than the newer models (this was a 5 star car).
So I test drove a new one and bought a 2009 Acura MDX...problem solved, right! Not in this case...
Apparently I was supposed to discuss this with her and make her comfortable that she and the kids were not going to die in a firey crash in her old death trap...
Like they say...damned if you do, damned if you don’t...I was just being a guy and trying to fix it instead of discuss it...my bad
Either way, she will be home and able to be with the kids at all of the activities...so I guess it is a win, win situation !!
