When I get home, Im going to slap my wife... just because she deserves it. She just called. She wants to cut the grass. On the riding mower. The same riding mower that Ive been trying to get her to figure out how to use by coming outside so I can show her the controls. The same riding mower that she refused to learn how to operate. When I picked up the phone, she was nearly yelling at ME because she couldnt figure out the mower. It is the most simple and easy to run mower I have ever owned. It has a pedal to go forward. No gears. No clutch. Just push it, and go. She couldnt start it. I walk her through that, yay, it runs. She tries to back out. It wont move. She gets ......, and shuts it down again. Release the parking brake, dear. Oh wait, she cant reach it. I try to explain HOW TO MOVE THE SEAT.... Its just like a car seat! REALLY!?!?!? She moves the seat, releases the brake, starts it back up. She cant figure out how to start the blades.

EVERY control on that mower is labled with PICTURES. I told her to read the pictures. Find the one that looks like spinning blades. She finds it. Now what? You can only move it one direction, and there IS AN ARROW TELLING YOU WHICH WAY THAT DIRECTION IS!!!!! After 5 minutes of trying to keep myself from reaching through the phone because she couldnt even TRY to figure it out on her own, and listening to her "I CANT FIGURE IT OUT!!!", she is finally cutting grass. For two weeks, she's been wanting me to do it. Yeah, like Im going to work 50 hours a week, plus softball practices and games, and god knows what else, and have the time to mow the yard, while she's home, quite literally, all day.
And then, the guy that I sold the boat to calls. He took the bill of sale to get it registered in his name. But there are a LOT of problems. It was sold to me on a BoS. But I never registered it because it was never ready for the water. The guy I got it from never had a title, because they werent needed the last time HE had it on the water. According to NCDMV, because the boat is over 18', a BoS is not adequate to retitle/re-register the boat. So the guy I got it from has to go to the DMV to fill out a lost title form for a title that never existed, have it notarized, and then I need to coordinate getting to the buyer.
