Wife: What do you do with the real nice items you find when you metal detect because I seldom ever see them.

Me: Sell them to pay down the Walmart Credit Card bills you rack up.

To some either one and to others both. In any case, they are both usually pleasurable.

Steel pants...... she can have them. Remember mother/wife units have eyes in the back of their heads and know everything.

I don’t dare show this to my wife, because she’ll accuse me of sending you half of the talking points you have listed. She must be related to my wife somehow.

Thanks for the morning laugh!

Wife: “Why can’t you find me nice rings like those people on YouTube find all the time?"

Me: "Because you refuse to move to a place with white sandy beaches, because you don’t want to be away from your (annoying) sisters and our kids who only come around when they want someone to babysit."

Ya I used to get a lot of the same comments.........then I found a coin off the treasure galleon !!!!! A good one......you know one of those valuable pieces of treasure. After weeks of people streaming into the house to see it, and lots of big value numbers being thrown around her attitude changed.......now I get stuff like, want me to pack you a lunch, or make sure you have some waters, and have a great day !! She will often call me about mid day, and it's always the same "are we rich yet". If I call here on a week day and say, I skipped work today, she immediately says "what did you find" I dont even get in trouble for skipping work anymore. Wooo hooo !! Finally got her trained !!

relate to that. I metal detect and have a great dog. My two refuges because all her attention going to her needy daughters and son's in laws who we have spent a small fortune on getting them out of legal jams. Funny how tens of thousands of dollars spent on them and no mention of ever paying it back and at the same time they are living large while I have to sell my AT Pro and coils to scrape up money for my Nox 800. Oh well, we all have our burdens to bear.

I’ve been married 46 years to this woman. Enlighten me to the downside of the outcome.

Great post that so many of us can relate to. No matter what finds I show my wife, her response is always the same "so does this mean I can retire yet?". She just know this irks the crap out of me.

PS. I know it's against the rules, but I am voting banner.

She said “ Maybe you could teach some of my girl friends how to metal detect and we all go hunting, I am sure we can find more than you do. Sure sweetness, and why don’t you teach some of my friends how to shop and gossip an “

Tell her to give you a list of her single girl friends from 18- 30!

Happy wife, happy life. Asking wife (or most) don't want to leave grand kids behind.
