If your wife complains, like mine about weeding the flower beds, here’s a tip to make your life a little more stress free. Roundup (and generic names like “Razor Burn” since roundup’s patent ran out) can save a lot of time, sore backs and grumpy wives. Take a funnel of appropriate size and turn upside down and duct tape to your sprayer wand. Now you can get close to the flowers without accidentally killing them too. Just one more tip to help score points with the little lady. Get a backpack from Lowes or Home Depot for her. They cost about $80, but, if you love your wife , you need to part with the money. Cheri can easily spray for 30 minutes without stopping to rest. Think how much exercise you’re helping her get while making the place look beautiful. I know before I broke down and invested in the backpack sprayer for Cheri, sometimes I just had to turn my chair around and not watch her lug that cumbersome fruit sprayer with one hand while pumping and spraying with the other! You know what an inconvenience that is to have to turn around all the time to get your Coke off the picnic table?
Do yourself a favor and show her some love. Get a backpack for her for Father’s Day.
