The hardest question ever

my "play clothes" are on the very top shelve in the laundry room and most of the time .. I am too lazy to reach that high for them .. :razz:

Buy a nice dark blue automotive coverall and add some cool BMW patches on it. Get your name embroidered on the chest, or use something generic like Fritz, Schmidt, or Otto.
Smear some axle grease on the front so it's not too nice to wear in the shop.
Then put a nail on the wall where you enter the garage, and hang your work coveralls on the nail.

I would only wear a Rosie the Riveter coverall.

BTW, I made some progress on our conundrum.

The solution lies not in explaining your fancy garage attire but in proving she does the same thing when cooking. Slowly convince her that the garage is your kitchen.
 
Shoots. I have a drawer-plus of about 50 (I counted) Tshirts, all of which are garage worthy. First thing I do when I get home is get into my grubbies, my mom was always getting on my and my three brothers to get out of the house, etc.

The problem is not so much that I get my nice stuff grubby, the Tshirts have long since lost her favor. The problem is that I keep putting on the same old reeking several that live at the top of the pile. Too, but that I'm always in my grubbies, sometimes don't change when we have to go somewhere. She has asked me on occasion to turn my shirt inside out...

And let's not get started on footwear. I grew up barefoot though I couldn't attend high school that way, I went through years at U of Hawaii on my ten-speed and barefoot. There was, though, one other guy in Engineering that did the same. Gotta soak up those minerals, to stay healthy. So now I'm six-six and 265, so it must have worked, in conjunction with the wifey being an excellent cook and having five-star capabilities in other areas. Now back to work, over and out.

Doesn't hurt if you maintain your SO's car in the fancy garage and use SOME of the savings to treat them to things like dinner, flowers, jewelry, etc. then you ought be forgiven for using the rest of the $ you saved on the E9.
 
My wife always asks why I can find time to work on the coupe but the household chores never seem to get done. I don't have an answer for her either.

I learned long ago that I need one car project going and one house project going at the same time. I also learning with the first car I ever flipped that some of the profits go to my wife. Ever since, she asks when I'm getting my next car to flip! ;-)

The '74 2002 Euro I'm picking up tonight is probably in the 35-40 count of cars.
 
Subscribed:-P
I so resemble that drawer with 50 work t shirts of which only the top few get worn.
So many cars so little time!
Definitely share the wealth with your loved ones. I think I will get my mad skills wife shopping for some nice coveralls.

Perhaps a group purchase deal!
With embroidered E9-Drivien patch?
