Classic

Great, Ralph…you just volunteered to be a Thermos caddie!

Ralph i can’t believe you didn’t see that coming.

Not all wives are like Honeybunch. I never pulled that on my husband.

I’d refuse to carry it! I guess you’re more of a gentleman than I, Ralph! lol

Ralph just had to open his big mouth.

This is similar to my wife’s habit of transporting or storing enough things in containers that it would take a gorilla to lift.

Well, Ralph, since some of your paraphernalia is probably in her purse. . .

I just hope he gave her a bunch of stuff to put in her purse.

A friend’s wife was so disappointed when he wasn’t a bit embarrassed in “hold my purse” situations.

In the end…there you have it!

See? She’s fine. Just as she said.

Honey, hold my purse while I try this on.

Think positive Ralph, better the thermos than the purse.

Why wouldn’t he say NO?

Tag! I’m it! My wife has a “grandma purse” that’s always full, when she’s missing something and getting desperate, I have her dump it out on the table…lo and behold there it is, but she won’t toss anything in it. I also carry a cloth bag for my glucometer and food log book but guess what stuff winds up in it on errand days. (I am a living history fan and call it my ’possibles bag").

Ralph should drink it all, since he’s having to carry it.

Nope. You brought it, you carry it. I’d have not taken it from her, ignored her rant, then gone home. Miserable woman.
