Mine just shakes her head when I speak of my "Tractor Friends"

I am sure she thinks it is just like when you are a kid and you have imaginary invisible friends.

Oh well, the joys of being self employed - I can lool all day !!

My wife thinks the same thing, however she says the tractors are at least harmless.

TonyC · Apr 3, 2002

Yeah, I get busted too. She's okay with it though since it's tractor **** instead of real ****! Whenever I have a problem with the Kubota she always says "did you ask you tractor friends about it?"

My darlin referrs to it as "time wasted on the internet", an interesting reference, since she is the one who went to school to learn how to use the net, and asks me to find all the information she doesn't have time to look for. For some odd reason, I seem to be able to locate what she's looking for after she gets totally frustrated and Pi$$ed, which of course pi$$es her off even more.

I guess I am lucky. My wife is the one who found this site a few years ago. She does not post much any more, but she still checks in once in a wile. [I think just so she can catch my typo's/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I'll be sitting at the computer minding my own business and my wife walks into the room and asks or declares; Are you talking to your tractor "buddies" again!

Yup. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

The other day we were outside talking as I was raking the lawn and she mentioned something about people who need to see a doctor for counseling and how expensive that is. I told her I am getting free counsel and accurite treatment prescriptions from TBN.

Then I had to explain what TBN is. I told her they have discovered my problems and recommended the correct treatment, her reply was okay what is it.

I said it is something they have defined as tractoritis and it can only be treated with seat time, which I had to explain also.
After thinking for a moment she agreed. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

I guess I'm pretty lucky, my wife thinks TBN is great! She frequently suggests that I post questions or information on TBN. She realizes what a great resource TBN is.

"i was just wondering if anyone else that visits this site gets thier *^^%$ busted for being on it so much?"

I wouldn't call it getting my *^^%$ busted, but my wife does comment on it. Usually it's, "How are your tractor buddies doing?" But I don't mind, because she's started asking me to ask you guys for specific information! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif She has already acknowledged that she is VERY impressed with how quickly we can get answers to questions, and how good the information is too!

I will, however, yield a little of my normal TBN time tonight for her. It's her 50th birthday today, so I'm going to take her out for a real nice dinner and surprise her with a new ring. Hope she realizes the sacrifice I'm making /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif!

One of the advantages of being single, is I have no wife to yell at me for anything I do /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif
The dog could care less what I do as long as she is Fed & Watered and fed and fed and fed etc. and gets to go for rides in the truck.

Devildog · Apr 3, 2002

I thought it might a been a tractor with no sheet metal/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

My wife will see me on TBN and just smile at me, then she says its addicting isnt it, and I just smile back at her /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Hey what can I say its just good therapy, Besides why spend time watching tv when you have TBN /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Golfgar4,
You are buying her a ring, and you don't have a tractor. Whatsaupwiddat? I surely do hope she appreciates the depth of the sacrifices you are making for her. I am sure that ring would by an implement of some kind, and that big ole' hunk a steal would be more impressive than her ring. Oh well, she probably wouldn't understand. You are probably making the best choice./w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Personally, I am with Mark in NH. Single with tractor and dog. Know any nice ladies with a tractor? I'd sure like to meet their tractor.

Nick,

I love that Whatsaupwiddat. That's great!/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

After you've been married for 31 years, you kind of get a feeling for what you need to do on certain "special" days! /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif And most guys can tell you what happens if you don't do what you need to do!/w3tcompact/icons/sad.gif

Yeah, you're right. The cost of the ring could've probably got me a nice rotary cutter. But since I don't have my tractor to pull it with yet, and I do want to get a tractor to pull it with (get my drift??), I'll spring for the ring. It's called INSURANCE!

My wife was just asking me to get off the internet (meaning TBN site) so she can make a phone call. She just looked into the room again. Gotta go.

I've only been maried for 5 years now, but I do the same thing. I call it earning brownie points but its just a matter of terminology.
