The ever lovely Mrs Marriedtoawoodworker and I were "discussing" where I was going to put the next project - a Krenov style humidor with 4 doors, 48" wide - and to make her point she got up and counted the pieces I've made that are in our great room. Just the one room. Came up to 21 things in the room that I've made. She announced the total and stood there looking at me. I paused for 5 or 10 seconds and suggested we needed to put an addition on the back of the house. That pretty much ended the conversation, but I have a feeling it ain't over.

That our wives and husbands put up with our noise, saw dust, spending and all around woodworkerisnness is seldom acknowledged. And it should be.
