The ladies envy my wife...

Last night my wife had a couple of her green and crunchy Mommy friends over for a visit. She took them in the back yard to show off her garden and other goodies. This included the rain collection system and compost tumbler that I built for her among other things. She reported to me, after the visit, that the ladies are envious of her for having a husband such as myself. I would love to say that this envy stems from some part of my good looks or manly physique but apparently it does not. What they do envy is my ability to create cheap, green, and very useful things for my wife's sustainable needs. My wife strives very hard to lead a sustainable lifestyle and tread lightly as she journey's through the world. Along the way I am asked to build various things to enable her to do so. My creations are seemingly not sought after by just my wife but by all women striving to live a similar lifestyle. Darn, these skilled hands....
