Purgatory

Featured Replies

My wife came to me today and freely admitted that she was part of my Purgatory existence; the look on her face said "and there's nothing you can do about it".. What the H did I do in a previous life to deserve this??? And how long is it going to last??

Sorry to hear of your pain. I'm glad I'm not in your shoes. My bride of forty-two years is my best friend. I wouldn't trade her for the world.

Same here, minus a couple of decades

Oh, she had a smile on her face, joking in her own little way; she had a computer question cause she has never really learned to use Windows.

Well, considering what a boss told me years ago, that statement is not conclusive.

His comment regarding his wife went like this. "I wouldn't take a million dollars for her, but I wouldn't give you a dime for a dozen more just like her."

Ahhhh, but the question is, does she do windows?

No, she will proudly tell you she doesn't do windows, Microsoft or otherwise....

I have to repeatedly explain basic Windows functions to her, she even writes them down in here little book, but to no avail; this has been going on for over a decade and more. But!! she can get on ebay and Amazon and spend money?? :Idontknow:

So this is my Purgatory, repeatedly explaining basic Windows functions to her endlessly. ;)

Edit:

P.S. This is a woman who's son is a Software Architect for Microsoft.

My best friend and fishing buddy has been with me for over 47 years. The reason it has been that long is she is always ready to explain, "Remember the wedding vows - till death do us part? One of us isn't getting out of this alive." I may not be the sharpest hook in the box, but I got a pretty good idea who she is talking about. If this is purgatory, I'll stay a while longer.
