No more pink and blue jobs

Tom, can you (or Chris) come down and teach Lorna those tasks? I feel I'm doing way to much as I get older

However, those functions don't come as cheap as you think they do.

Edit: Split off from this topic.

Ned,

It's all a matter of making 'em feel they're in control and are doing what they choose to do. As the saying goes, "lead, follow, or get out of the way", and I just say "go for it Honey, I'm behind you all the way".

Ned · Dec 31, 2007

I tried that, Tom, and it didn't fool her for a second

Tom,
Don't put those expensive bed warmers and electric blankets too far out of reach. With some of your recent comments, you may be needing them sooner than you realize!

Tom · Dec 31, 2007

Ned is obviously not a very good teacher/psychologist/motivator, and Karl doesn't know that Chris has never read a single forum message in the many years I've been online

I complained to Pat the other day about doing the outside jobs in the rain and I was informed that she would drive but if it came to her having to do anything outside, the MH would go!!

The last time she did the outside chores, I was down for almost 2 years, surgery 2X, radiation and Chemo.

I'm not pushing it!!

Tom · Jan 1, 2008

LOL Jim, I see you also need some coaching/motivation tips.

Jim Godward · Jan 1, 2008

I think I could possibly handle it with a little more motivation but I'm not sure I could avoid the hex or whatever happend the last time! VBG

I thought I did well to get the Search button push a pink job

Therein is your problem; When Betty defined pink jobs and blue jobs, folks seized the opportunity for demarcation based on gender

When Sam heard that outside jobs were basically considered blue jobs and inside jobs are basically pink jobs she was quick to point out the drivers seat was inside.

Tom · Jan 1, 2008

Sam thinks much faster than you Ron ;D

Ron · Jan 1, 2008

But I still get the last two words in.

Tom · Jan 1, 2008

Sam has trained you well.

Ron · Jan 1, 2008

Yep and I bet Chris has taught you the same two words. ;D

No but I suspect you were taught the same last two words as the rest of us. Remember the two words you tell her when she says slow down> ;D ;D

Ron:

Oh, I know the words!
