A bunch of cables and an angry wife

But that's life! I do some of the audio and tech stuff at church and occasionally buy cables or have to coordinate the process of getting them to church along with some gizmos and gadgets. This week, a friend donated a few guitar cables to church and I have to keep them at home till Sunday. Guess who's not happy? My wife. She calls me the cable guy! But I can assure you all that she loves me and the cables actually make that bond stronger.

Oh, man! When your wife isn't happy, you won't be allowed to be happy, either! Good luck! (There's a reason I got divorced twice! I MUCH prefer being single!)

Our relation is probably a bit different. I personally have enjoyed married life and family - i guess it worked out well for me!

@pitstop Most of the time I was married was alright... But there were some things I wasn't willing to overlook. I'm happy for you if you enjoy being married. Some people like it and others don't.

Dwl.......your comment about being divorced and prefer single life made me scream, I guess women can be difficult sometimes as can men, but there's always that one who makes a few difficult times not so bad

I have to buy balanced cables - my love for cables and wife has to be balanced.

I recently got something removed from the house that was occupying space since many months. No wonder I was getting complaints from my wife, all these months!! Sometimes even when having a refreshing cup of Tea. So well, perhaps all married folks have a similar situation at times!!

It's better not to clutter the house

@pitstop But once cluttered, de-cluttering is the way forward but wirh a good planning and implementation.

I would be upset should my husband left the cables on the floor like that.

I put them in the floor only for the photograph. Otherwise they were in a paper bag stashed away in a corner of the store room.

@pitstop In that case there is nothing to complain about.

We have a linen press but nearly half of it is taken with photographic gear so I know where your wife is coming from.

I should have a chat with your hubby about how I could use stuff to store my cables in!

The cables shouldn't upset her if they aren't in the way!

Maybe your wife doesn't like cables. Messy cable tangled

Maybe I should store them in an organised way and she won't mind.
