Default JB n Sherrill

JB n Sherrill
It is important for men to remember that as women grow older, it becomes harder for them to maintain the same quality of housekeeping as when they were younger. When you notice this, try not to yell at them. Some are

oversensitive, and there's nothing worse than an oversensitive woman.

My name is JB.

Let me relate how I handled the situation with my wife, Sherrill. When I Cut back on overtime a few years ago, it became necessary for Sherrill to get a full-time job along with her part-time job, both for extra income and for the health benefits that we needed

Shortly after she started working, I noticed she was beginning to show her age.

I usually get home from the lake about the same time she gets home from work.

Although she knows how hungry I am, she almost always says she has to rest for half an hour or so before she starts dinner.

I don't yell at her Instead, I tell her to take her time and just wake me when she gets dinner on the table.

I generally have lunch in the Fishies Grill at the marina, so eating out is not reasonable.

I'm ready for some home-cooked grub when I hit that door.

She used to do the dishes as soon as we finished eating, but now it's not unusual for them to sit on the table for several hours after dinner.

I do what I can by diplomatically reminding her several times each evening that they won't clean themselves.

I know she really appreciates this, as it does seem to motivate her to get them done before she goes to bed.

Another symptom of aging is complaining, I think.

For example, Sherrill will say that it is difficult for her to find time to pay the monthly bills during her lunch hour.

But, boys, we take 'her for better or worse, so I just smile and offer encouragement. I tell her to stretch it out over two or even three days. That way she won't have to rush so much.

I also remind her that missing lunch completely now and then wouldn't hurt her any (if you know what I mean!).

I like to think tact is one of my strong points.

When doing simple jobs, she seems to think she needs more rest periods. She had to take a break when she was only half finished mowing the yard. I try not to make a scene.

I'm a fair man. I tell her to fix herself a nice, big, cold glass of BEER and just sit for a while. And, as long as she is Pouring one for herself, she may as well Pour one for me, too.

I know that I probably look like a saint in the way I support Sherrill. I'm not saying that showing this much consideration is easy. Many men will find it difficult. Some will find it impossible!

Nobody knows better than I do how frustrating women get as they get older.

However, guys, even if you just use a little more tact and less criticism of your aging wife because of this article, I will consider that writing it was well = worthwhile.

After all, we are put on this earth to help each other.
Signed,

JB



EDITOR'S NOTE: JB died suddenly on August 17th, of a perforated rectum.


The police report says he was found with a ALL STAR 7ft MH rod jammed up his rear end, with barely five inches of grip showing, and a sledge hammer laying nearby.

His wife Sherrill was arrested and charged with murder.



The all-woman jury took only 15 minutes to find her not guilty, accepting her defense that JB somehow, without looking, accidentally sat down on his ALL STAR rod very quickly. We still aren't sure why the sledge hammer was there.

Lol, yeah they probably did, even though they posted it a while ago. I still can't control myself when I read it though.
