Ran errands for the wife in the morning.
Did three loads of laundry in the afternoon.
Cooked dinner in the evening - Chicken in Cream with Bacon, served with a nice bottle of chilled Chardonnay.
Cleaned up after dinner.
I think I may have made a strategic error in setting the expectation level way too high...

Quick - throw something red in with the whites, and burn dinner. You're looking for the eye roll and the drawn-out sigh that means men can't do anything right.
Then do something like run the vacuum in her sight so you show her you are willing to help, but you are too inept to do much.
Good luck, and congrats on the retirement.
WOW, CTT you sure did make a huge mistake.
Ever hear of that psychological term: "imprinting"? Well, you just left one huge imprint with today's activities.
If you could turn back the clock I'd suggest you remain in bed moaning about a migraine headache. Then after your wife leaves the house jump up, put on a good DVD movie, make a sandwich, pop a brew and enjoy. Then just before the little lady's arrival jump back in bed, restart the moan and suggest maybe a fine dinner would help the pain go away.
Great suggestions, George. I'll do that this weekend. Thanks for the good wishes.
Toejam - we've been married long enough for her to know that yesterday was an aberration. Back to normal today...
Golly, what an understanding wife.
I was reading from my rule book when i mentioned the above.
Hey, this is neat! You can blog and write to your heart's content. Congrats. . .
Thanks, N1, but my wife may have other plans for me...
