A Blacksmith friend of mine was telling he about his wifes honeydo request, thought you might get a chuckle out of it.
My wife stepped into my workshop the other day and asked me if I
would go do some wood turning on the lathe. "Of course I will," I
replied, with anticipatory joy at the thought of my wife's pleasure
when I would be finished creating the item for which she had a need.
I questioned, "What do you need? Maybe a new dibber or possibly a
rolling pin or a vase? I have Persimmon, Hickory, Mesquite, a little
bit of Walnut and a tad of Oak. What would you like?"
"Oh, I don't care," my wife replied. "I just need about six bags of shavings for
the flower beds."
