When the wife tries to help....

I didn't know the door handle was loose, and the missus didn't bother to tell me it was "broke" until she tried to fix it.....

I guess long as she doesn't get anything out of my toolbox, she won't hurt anything.

I'm sure you have a grinder. Just cut a slot in the brick and it's fine. Tell her we're laughing with her not at her.

C'mon, Davy, let's be serious here. Much easier to just cut an inch off the handle with that same angle grinder. Why mess up the brick?

Now you're using your head for more than a hat rack.

I like how the handle on the inside goes the other way.

My wife once busted the glass on the storm door. It got hit by debris from the weed whacker and shattered into a thousand pieces. I removed the storm door. It as old and ugly anyway.

My wife has busted two of our windows with the weed eater. I tell her to throw the rocks the other direction but she hasn't figured out how to do that yet. After 46 years together, I guess I'll keep replacing them, cheaper than replacing her.

I'm not going to mention trying to get her to put the toilet paper on the roll so it rolls out on the front instead of the back.
