[quote=temeculaguy]Eavesdropper, I recently put in about 1500 sq ft of wood flooring by myself. It ended up being easier and more fulfilling than I had imagined. Bribe your husband with sexual favors, use your imagination, think of things well beyond his imagination. This is not a typical TG joke, men are simple, spell out the reward schedule and the impossible becomes simple. Women often fail to see how simple we are, he can thank me later.[/quote]

TG, I’d sooner put the flooring in myself, and would if I had more time these days. I love him somethin’ awful, but home improvement projects are not his thing. You cannot believe how badly he can screw things up.

But I’m curious: how long did it take you? And do you mind me asking what product you ended up using?

BTW, I’m one of the lucky ones: I was my husband’s high school crush, one upon which he never acted (probably because he knew I’d deck him…) At any rate, we met again many years later. We’ve been together 12 years now, and (without going into graphic detail) it’s still great! He says that marrying the girl that you fantasized about from the time you were 15 is a total aphrodisiac. All I know is that I can be 15 pounds overweight, have 1 inch of gray roots in my hair, puffy eyes from pulling an all-nighter, and no makeup, and all he’s seeing is the girl I was back in the 70s. It’s pretty cool.
