Yes that is what I normally get and so far she has been in the car once the first weekend I got it. The scenario is normally something like this.

  • Trip away is announced on club website, sometimes a day trip but also weekends away normally staying for two nights.
  • I mention it and get the answer for day trips "Yes you should do it, maybe take your dad." OR for trips with a stay in a hotel, yes you will enjoy that and gives me some time alone."
  • Then when the time comes I get for day trips "You waste too much time driving that car" OR for longer trips "You go away too often and there are heaps of things you should be doing around the house."

Oh yeas! The guilt factor! I get that from time to time. I try to fend that off with taking care of as many house projects as possible. Then she has less to complain about....in theory!
