I'm using the term "husbands" because mostly its men who don't listen, but it can be any spouse, partner, etc. Here is a story. MH was watching TV all morning, resting before working tonight. Plus, he was in a bad mood. Anyway, I was researching on Ebay the selling price of a vintage Gucci purse, because I have one just sitting in my closet, and I want to sell it. He knows that. So, I said to MH, "Hey honey, someone sold a Gucci purse on Ebay. The price started at $9.99, and there is another hour to bid, and the price is at $350.00." He said, "uh huh." Then I had trouble putting the pic of my purse on ebay, and tried to discuss downsizing MB with MH. He mumbled, "I don't know." So I aborted the listing of my Gucci until I can figure out MB. A couple of hours later, MH got ready for work. As he was leaving he said, "So, that's a good day. You sold the purse for $350.00." What?????? I swear, my dogs comprehend better.
