Together we have carried appliances, furniture, building supplies, etc. We moved 200 miles together and I am the one who loaded the uHaul because I am a better packer than he is. <br /><br />I don't feel that I am too womanly to help him and it won't hurt me to do a little physical labor. <br /><br />When I was young, my dad taught me how to change oil, brakes and tires on the car. He also taught me how to use power tools. There was no reason for me to be the "little helpless woman" should I find myself alone and in need of something. I am so thankful for that knowledge. I can and have used every power tool in my house. <br /><br />Last year, we had to cut down a tree, so I climbed up with the chainsaw and began slicing limbs. With both of us working together we had the job done in half the time. <br /><br />I have never been stuck and needing help! I don't see what the big deal is with women helping their men out. My husband helps me do things all the time as well - it's all about teamwork.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14725530.post-87859960066940157732009-12-05T12:13:50.256-05:002009-12-05T12:13:50.256-05:00Years ago, I used to help all the time.

Because I would have been royally hacked about the second dryer. Of course, I probably would have purchased the second dryer myself because my husband manages to screw stuff like that up every single time!<br /><br />Good luck with your sale.ZDubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17050000234750719978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14725530.post-55780952993851362992009-12-04T08:46:39.241-05:002009-12-04T08:46:39.241-05:00I always do, because my husband refuses to call a ...I always do, because my husband refuses to call a friend or neighbor to help.
