Together we have redone 3 houses and built a million dollar business from a corn field, plus worked full time in our 25 years together besides raising 6 very successful kids. Now that we are retired, we are just finishing a complete gut job on a rental house our son bought. She has her own power miter and tile saw, plus shares my table saw and Spanker. Great gal.


My wife's a CPA and not very handy.

She didn't understand why I didn't want our son out in the shop when I made a form 1 silencer for his 22. I had her look up "metal lathe accidents" on YouTube.

Now she gets nervous when I do have him out in the shop with me.
