NOME -- I used to joke and tell my friends that other than for obvious reasons, I only need a man to operate my chain saw. Because really, I’m an Alaska girl, and can bleed the line when I run out of fuel at the house. I thaw my pipes when they freeze. I can change a flat tire, butcher a caribou and catch, filet, smoke and can a silver salmon. Oh, and shoot a few ptarmigan with a .22 for dinner. You know. Normal stuff.
But here’s the thing. I’ve relied on a man for seven years to supply the wood for the stove. And it’s embarrassing.

yes because all we men are good for is taking out the garbage and cutting firewood.
and American women wonder why they are alone.
She could let him butcher the caribou for her, at least until she has sons old enough to do it.
She has a sweet smile and happy eyes.
And no brain.
No kidding.
FU and piss off Laureli. You think men are tools for your Queen Bee self to use and throw away. Crown yourself the Asshat Queen instead. There’s nothing wrong with needing someone.
Mrs p6 though she could split firewood. Go ahead says I. She took the maul and promptly bounced it back within an inch of her head. Of course I was watching so she was safe... she never tried again.
That would be a good wife to have ..... During football season.
Interestingly enough Daughter can split firewood and do more than her Eagle Scout brothers. She paid attention.
She didn’t know how to use a chainsaw? Yes, that’s embarrassing. Hubby was off on a job for several months and for some reason, probably global warming, we had big limbs falling every few days. Some had broken down the fence so that had to be taken care of immediately and there was no one but me to do it. I’d drop the kids off at half day church pre-school and immediately grab the ax and chainsaw to cut them into small enough pieces to carry up the hill. Yes, cough, tightening the chain does keep it from flying off.
Why, because she wrote a chirpy article about learning a new skill?
Translation please.
Wanted:
Good woman who can cook and clean fish and has a boat and motor.
PS: Please send pic of boat and motor.
This article is useless without picture(s). I was wanting to view superwoman.
Looks disturbingly like my sister.
How did you deduce she was married from the article?
LOL! Could be a Ky ad.
How is your sister when it comes to gutting a caribou?
