Will your wife do this?

I wanted to install a drain culvert so we could cross a ditch. My plan was to rent a backhoe but wifey says no lets save the money, I can do it.
Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

NO SIR
good job i just dont need to save money that badly.
Not with a gun pointed at her.

You better have taken her to a good restaurant afterwards.
It's all I can do to get my wife to even sit in my tractor. Actually do anything with it, NO WAY.

I woulda saved the $ and the time! Simply select 4x4 if needed😎.
That was a LOT of work, so congrats to her for being ABLE and willing!
Not with 2 guns pointed at her.

Wifey no, me no. I would have rented the backhoe. Wifey would have urged me to hire it done
What's a wife?
Yes!! My wife has been there with me for every project we decide to do rather yard,house,cars. She is also my hunting/shooting partner. I am very lucky.
Nice job, well done Mogley and Mrs.
I wouldnt think of even asking her.
I have been trying to get my Wife to learn how to drive the Kubota and front end loader.
Mine can run the FEL, grapple, rotary broom, brush hog, chain saw, snow blower but I don’t think she ever was trained on the shovel and wheelbarrow!
My wife will help on most projects.Looks like these Carolina gals are pretty tough.
The wife would be watching me & ready to dial 9-1-1 if I get hurt.
Wife helps me with all the projects. Installed 3 - 46" x 54" picture windows yesterday. She lifted her side.
She has her own chainsaw. Won't let me use it. Says if I want to cut something to go get my own saw.
Yup, I think she may be a keeper.
She deserves the money not paid for the backhoe rental.
Oh, and, if America's Got Talent contacts you concerning your singing, do not bother going for the audition....just saying 😁
My wife would rent the backhoe, jump on it, and have half the property torn up before noon!
My wife can do anything she decides to do. If she decided to put a culvert in, it would be put in.
Yes. And better than I could.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I have a backhoe, don't need a wife...
I used to joke everytime we moved (Army) that I needed a wife. You just confirmed you have a great one.
Mine would have said she would help me and then stand and watch . I know from the start it is going to be all me doing the work . She is a good wife ,just not real " handy"
