Another woodworker / sawdust maker here...

Although WW does relax and relieve some stress by me not thinking about stressful items (i.e. work), it's still doesn't relax /de-stress me the way...

While the MIL has never and will never see me dressed, she is a major source of all sorts of problems.

And my wife does seem to look to her for 'approval'. She is also a very jealous and...

Annieelmira,
Wow, that really does sound very similiar.
My wife has also known for about 15 years

Her mother has been giving her a lot of grief all year with extra tossed on when we told...

Really glad for you all, hope it continues and spreads...

I'd be happy w/'tolerance'.

Another example, we spent the day together Wednesday and we bought her 2 new pair of boots. I told her I'd buy them for her if I could use the pair we bought few her a...

I'm quite confused.

My wife told me that's she thinks it 'disgustting' whenever she sees me dressed (at all), but, still claims to be 'supportive'. This doesn't make sense to me.

A little...

Red pill, but, with Trinity's wardrobe... :D

Raised the height of the sofa table I built her a few years ago so it would no longer be hidden by our newer higher backed sofa along with finishing the laundry, the dishes and some general cleaning.

Another winter shaver here.
I haven't yet though, but, will likely do so quite soon as 'shorts season' is finally winding down around here.

...then gotta find another pair of boots to cover them...

Yep.

Or at least listen to the game on the radio while making sawdust in the garage / shop, running to the basement to catch a replay of a big play when possible.

You nailed it AngelFire.

I was really just referring to their idea of a 'double standard', hair color wasn't the real issue. Sorry if I offended anyone.

FWIW, I'm in my mid-forties with a bit...

Gray hair makes men look 'distinguished' while it makes women look 'old'.

They were even complaining about the 'double standard'.

I thought it was good for a laugh or two.

...or would a multi-tool pulled from a handbag be more appropriate? ;)

For myself, it provides a much needed mental break.

Just wish it could happen more often, though just putting on my denim skirt and heels does the trick may many times, when I only have a short...

Usually in the fall if I have any vacation time remaining, as I will this year, I'll take a day or two off and spend the day dressed arounrd the house.

I'm actually going out of town next week for...

Fall to spring is best for me also.
I'm able to shave my legs then...

Too much stuff to do outdoors in the summer as well.

Plus, fall thru spring is BOOT season ;)

I've read this somewhere before (most likely here) and noticed it myself once I looked for it but, men (and possible women in flats) have a tendancy to lean back as they walk causing your heel to hit...

My wife actually bought "My Husband Wears my Clothes" a couple years ago (not an easy thing for her to do, I'm sure), read a chapter or so and it's been hidden in one of her drawers (from others, not...

I repaired (somewhat) a broken heel on a pair of 5" pumps with a nail gun and dry wall screws about a year ago. They're wearable, but, I gotta be a bit careful and go 'easy' on them..

Sound like ya better get your 'Re-Org' boots out, I'm sure you have plenty to choose from ;)

Dressing or at least under dressing is a great pick-me-up for myself also.
The Lord, knows with work...

I actually did my wife's like that and mine all green.

She just made a comment the other day that her's need redone.

Now, if we can just get some time together they'll get repainted and mine...

Way to go, as usual.

Certainly was another way too nice day in the 'burgh...

You'll probably need those boots this weekend though, payback times a comin'

You're jury duty adventures sounded...

I don't recall them being much of a problem either, 25+ years ago...
They were my sisters sandles and pumps with only a 3" or so heel.

I have couple pair with 5" heels, one having a decent amount...

No, can't say as I do.

Early teens for me and my sisters black knee high 'fashion boots' with a 2" or so high heel...
Also loved her 'spaghetti strap' sandels, with a 3" wedge heel.

On two occasions when she was...
