When it comes to stuff like this I just let her do whatever. It is so unimportant that if it means a lot to her. Go for it, paint it what you want. On the same note, when there is something I want, I get it probablly because of this. I let her make all the small decisions she wants to make. When it comes to something major though there is much more interest and debate if needed. Paint scheme in the kitchen I do not consider major. Buying a car I consider major. If it makes her happy, why not. Pretty easy to do.

It sounds like she broke the rules. She said that the kitchen needs painting and then determined the color and the time frame{ layoff} . That is a violation. Wives can tell you what to do. They can tell you when to do something. They can tell you how to do something but they can only choose one of the 3. Throw the flag! Mrt.

Paint the kitchen? Where is it? In all seriousness, the kitchen is the wife's domain, if she wants it painted go for it... hand her a brush and stand back, unless of course they ask for help.

I got back from CANADA one year to a kitchen in SHERWOOD FOREST GREEN, yuck. But I wisely got used to it. When we built a new house I got an agreement to leave all walls white for five years. Times up, so I'm getting ready for something, just not puke green.

After 30 years of marriage, she can't get too pissed at ya for saying she's out of her mind Big Smile Why not just agree with her, send her on her way to go shopping and paint it the color you want. Just make sure you have your boat packed up and your buddies at your house when she gets home. Give her a few days to chill and your all good. Cool
