Hi Sassy! So how is your project coming?? Were you able to accomplish what you wanted to without having to ask for help from "the guys?" Hon, I know what you're going through!! I raised my son all by myself so I became pretty proficient in alot of "man things" such as carpentry, elec. wiring, plumbing, etc., etc.,etc. Nowadays with my body not wanting to co-operate with me any longer, the men in my life think it's funny to watch me get all frustrated before I'll ask them for any form of help. I finally blew-up at my son and one of his buddies about 2 weeks ago because they were sitting on their lazy butts chuckling between themselves about me and my "methods" but not offering any suggestions or help. Lordy but I lit into those two!! I'd venture to say that there will probably NEVER be anymore testosternone parties in my household again!! LOL!!! They started telling me that what I wanted done just wasn't possible. Well now I knew better than that because I had done it several times and just couldn't remember how I had worked it out is all. Needless to say, they both finally hushed up when I told them how to do it and it worked out fine! LOL!! I don't think guys bother to stop and think that we're just a different breed of women and if they would give us half a chance they could learn a few things from us. I know that I have to let them feel that they're the one's that came up with the solution, but if they're going to continue to put me down and basically try to tell the world that I'm the idiot, then I'm going to prove to them that they're the idiot and not me. Don't let them get you down g/f!! Every now and then my son will break-down and admit that I've got more going on in my brain than he thought I did. BUT....don't ask a man to admit that in front of anyone outside of you!! If you do?? The next things you know you will be trying to break down his ego. (rolling eyes). MEN!! Ya gotta love them!! |
