Now, now, we all love our wives. For example:
Don't you already have a machine like that?
Don't you have 10 pairs of black flats?
Hasn't questioned a machine since.
An honest conversation with my Mrs...
The Mrs: "Have you ever asked yourself how much money you spend on this stuff ?"
Me: "Nope, but the day you can take a pair of your shoes, restore them and make them worth 3 to 10 times more than what you originally paid...I'll fund your shoe collection too."
Just glad i was more than an arms length away.
