I had a nice chainsaw. It's at my eldest daughter's house now. (right next to my mower).

Keeping all the outside tools in one place is an excellent idea.
A question for the ladies here...

Keeping all the outside tools in one place is an excellent idea.
Why (oh why) do you gals insist that when "us guys" put something of ours away we really didn't mean to put it "there"? (Therefore you move it.)
Mrs. Kodiak threw away a brand spankin' new 250ml bottle of e-liquid I had steeping way up high in a cupboard. (She thought it was old dog shampoo. 8-o). Now... keep in mind this bottle was hidden in a spot unknown to her and all of mankind but low and behold... she found it! She's even a petite gal and would have needed a ladder just to reach that shelf.
I can't be the only one this happens to and I suspect conspiracy. Somewhere there is another dimension where all the crap I once knew I had but can't find anymore now resides. After 30 years of marriage I'm convinced this is genetic to the female species.
Ladies, resist those urges! Fellow male vapers... bury your stuff in the backyard. Today!
This is exactly why god invented storage lockers - at undisclosed locations.
Kodiak, the main problem is at some point us men. 200 - 300 years ago a mans home was his castle and women were property. You could buy, sell and trade them like playing cards. Then we men got soft and started treating them like us. It was slow at first, we gave a little here, we gave a little there, it was all good, so we thought. "What could it hurt if we let them think for themselves?" we said. "What could it hurt if we let them vote?" we said. "What could it hurt if we let them work outside the home?" we said. You never see when you are on a slippery slope until there is an avalanche. Then the 60's hit and it all hit the fan. Suddenly "they" were equals. Equals! Now a man is lucky to have a man cave! Now instead of spending the night at a local tavern drinking ourselves into a stupor, we have to spend "quality" time with them and the kids! Remember when a man......I have to finish later. The wife is coming and if she sees me writing this misogynistic crap, I'll get "the talk" and the stink eye again.
Is one of these mysteries...
just like handbags. All that stuff inside a handbag actually has more volume than the outer measurements of a handbag would allow.
Space-time-continuum-compression. Folds in the very fabric of the universe. Don't need hadron colliders or radio telescopes for finding that.
A peek in any female's handbag will do.
And in the folds of space time within a handbag she'll find for you that long lost mod, that favourite juice, a few spare attys....
(Don't even think looking there yourself )
But Oscar Wilde said it already:
''Women are made to be loved, not understood"

Oh good grief Kodiak, you’re a bear. Even Yogi went through the dump. But in our house it would have been my husband that tossed it and he would be the one rummaging the dump. He once emptied out a container with 500 meal worms in it. It was the bird's food. I was mad, the bird was livid. Took him about 2 hours to track down all those worms.
Haunted Myst won’t be back for a while. I emailed his wife.
Alisa, I know, huh. We probably have six of everything. Five that he’s put away god knows where and one of which he hasn’t used yet.

A bit of gender reversal in our house....it's hubby that's always moving stuff. Fortunately he rarely throws things without asking.
By the way Kodiak, if Mrs thought she was throwing away dog shampoo just be thankful she didn't use it to wash the dog!

One word...ask
Do you really want to be asked about every dirty sock, receipt, gum wrapper, McDonald's cup, pair of ripped underwear, spent battery, game controller, nail clipper, etc that is encountered during the normal daily housekeeping? My husband lasted through 2 days of that, before he told me to do whatever I wanted.

Oh my, the fun that could be had ... and with his permission (like we need that).
On the bright side Kodiak...you at least know the stuff is gone and needs to be replaced. Mrs Tow is a "mover" and has the the memory of a steel sieve. The end result is stuff goes astray and neither of us knows/remembers if is its here "somewhere" or has been discarded forever.
On the plus side, I get to watch my favorite movies over and over cause she can never remember having seen them before.

Lol... this is a funny thread!
My wife won't blantantly throw stuff away but she sure will move stuff and then conveniently forget where she put it. Then she has the nerve to blame it on me.

I feel your pain! My wife is currently preparing for a one week trip to visit some old high school friends in another state. Now, mind you, this one week trip has taken over four weeks of preparation (sewing machine up to make alterations to clothes, clothes laid out to determine "outfits," then put back, then brought back out because she changed her mind, lists of things she needs to remember to take, on and on and on....)!!!
Apparently, my note about a doctor's appointment left on the counter must have been in her way, cause now it is nowhere to be found!!!!
When she is not in her trip preparation mode it is not unusual for me to find my closet rearranged!
She does a very good job at keeping the house nice and tidy, but **** I sure would like to be able to find the something in the same place sometimes!!!

My wife is also a vaper.
Because of this, she uses the same vape materials that I do.
I constantly have to ask her where she has put X, Y, and Z items.
I once found my little screwdriver that I use for our KFL+'s on top of the fridge. Mind you, I keep this screwdriver in a toolbox on the other end of the house.. How or why it ended up there is still a mystery.
This happens with many of our vape-gear. I swear she just uses something, puts on a blindfold, and walks around until she finds a surface to put it on.

No m'lady, afraid not.
Monday I hauled it out... Tuesday they picked it up. Wednesday (today) I'm screwed.
So you're telling me it's easier the 2nd time around? Can I keep the first one at the same time? (We have plenty of room here).
You'd actually throw out his beer bottle collection!?!? 8-o. Is there no sanity in marriage anymore?
Both of our first marriages were with control issue people. In our case, yes, it is sooooo much better the second time.
As far as keeping the first, seems like you don't need to try for a second. You love your wife
I can tell just cuz you want to keep her around. Oh good grief Kodiak, you’re a bear. Even Yogi went through the dump.

Bwahahahaha!!!!!!!! Emailed his wife! Bwahahahaha!!!!
Hubby is going to think I'm nuts
A much needed laugh Thank you!
I had a nice chainsaw. It's at my eldest daughter's house now. (right next to my mower).
And I just placed a massive order with ECBlends (again). When my e-juice arrives, it's going into one of these:

But notice the nice lady standing by... ready to "move" things around and hide them. We can't win I tell 'ya.
I can understand the problem, because my husband often relocates *my* things, and they are never to be seen again -- he's the orderly organizer in this family, not me, and heaven help me if I leave an important paper on the kitchen table. But, I have had some success with "This is mine. Don't move it, don't bother it, please, because it's important to me, and I need for it to be right here when I need it again," or something along those lines. Does that not work?
Also -- all you guys with females who go into your things -- here's a tip: grab her purse and start pawing thru it, and when she freaks out, just say, well hon, you go thru all my stuff all the time, I figured what's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine, and I was curious, you keep so much cool stuff in here..." I bet she'll get the point that there have to be BOUNDARIES.

A friend of mine almost took a whole bunch of his wife's new clothes to goodwill while she was out of town. He thought that since she didn't wear them often she wouldn't miss them. Luckily, a few of us were able to talk him down, and he's still married and among the living.
(we weren't able to talk him down before he shaved the cat...but he didn't need stitches or anything)

only thing i ever felt the need to hide from my SO's we're credit cards, my muneh, and anything that could be used as a weapon.....like ice picks, axe's (the body spray, although i would have saved myself a lot of effort by hiding the tool on one occasion), hammers, toasters, Buick's, curling irons, tasers, kitchen knives, kitchen spoons, kitchen sinks, lufa sponges, pillows, and most flavors of pudding cups.
i have known some really resourceful wimmenz....the state correctional institutions must be excellent places of higher learning.
yet to have to hide juice tho...well..orange juice once...but that was my fault...long story, i deserved that whuppin. not e-juice tho, thats always been safe.
