Bruce and I move crap all the time.
I can't lift heavy stuff. So I do a bunch of pushing and getting yelled at.

You should be here when we move the cannon. I do a bunch of pusing holding and getting yelled at!!!

But of all the things I really hate doing is hooking up a trailer.
That is just one of those things that I'm not good at.
I just don't get it, you see me standing on the trailer can't you line up with me and get close.
I will tell you to stop before you hit me.
But no I have to point for you and get yelled at!!!

Oh, do you see a pattern here?

I some times ask before we do someting, Is there going to be yelling?
That way he will thing about it and not yell so much.
Just so you know, He will thank me and give a hug when we are done.

I just try to do it by myself and in the long run the trip to the emergency room is worth not having to fight.
(this is how I learned to cut my own hair)

I was camping a couple of years ago and I'm walking down to the bath house to get a shower. There is a guy trying to back this monster camper into a small wooded site with his pickup truck. His wife is trying to guide him. They are both looking very pissed off. I knew they were about to go at it.
As I walk by the truck window he says to me, "This is how divorces happen". I had to bite my tongue, I wanted to tell him that it is not her fault that you can't back up a fucking trailer. But I was able to control myself. I got my shower and went back to my camp site with my tiny tent, my bike, and BOB, while they probably had hot make-up sex in the air conditioned camper parked crooked between the trees.

Backing up, hooking up and everything else trailers/campers etc is EASY! You tell Bruce that tiny little me can hook up a trailer unassisted and get it on target the first time and every time, there is no reason he can't.

You shudda mocked the guy with the camper. Hell, I managed to parallel park my horse trailer once. That wasn't easy but I was challenged and I won.

I'm always yelling at Matt because I can't lift things the way other people can. A) it's all about the leverage for me and B) my friggin back. Two things he always forgets.

I usually get a, "I'm sorry, you were right." afterwards.

Kim, we should make our guys help each other and sit by and watch the hilarity.

I'm seeing a trend here.

We do pretty good with hooking up the trailer as he can pretty much do it without me.

The hard part is, when I am directing him, he will have his window closed and the radio on then tell me he can't hear me or see me in the mirror. Ummmmmmm dude-how about a little communication?

I feel like Gordon Ramsay from Kitchen Nightmares. He's always shouting at the cooks to COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER.

And his expectation in regards to moving things is I will pick up anything he does. This is a man who can squat 400 lbs. Although I must say, we haven't moved anything I haven't been able to help him with. Yay me.......

He also used to constantly angle things so I was the one walking backwards until I figured him out. Now I always make sure its him-haha.

Now why do both of these scenarios sound familiar to me? Just sayin'...

I'm just saying guys just can't move or do stuff with out some kind of yelling or no talking at all.
As for the trailer. He can do with out me. So I have not idea why I have to stand there and point and what not. You would think it would be easier to do it my him self.

I am never the person that walks backsward!! Forget it is not happening!! I can't not for the life of me walk backswards and carry.

But I can crew gum and walk!

I bet you can't type and chew gum though!

Ah, Kim's terrible typing is now back to normal.

He needs a punching bag, that's why he makes you stand there and get abused, Kim. Next time, direct him all messed up and then once he starts his yapping, walk away and leave him to sort it out himself.
