As a farm wife I did more work with my DH than I care to really think about. He's a good man but got terribly bossy when we worked together. Some days I'd just walk away and go in the house, lol! Boy, that did more to put him in his place than anything else I could have done in the heat of the moment. I could always get more done and do it faster when my daughter and I did the work on our own. I think women are just better planners and tend to think things through better before they start a project. My daughter and I even tended to be able to read each others minds when things went astray with out actually speaking to each other. If things went astray while working with DH he'd blow a gasket if I tried to think for myself. Ha Ha! Men and women just don't think the same or take the same approach to things. Just so you know my DH is otherwise the calmest, kindest sort of man and so enjoyable to be around.
