Are you ready my lady?!

That saturday evening, my wife and I were getting ready to go to my friends place for a get-together. It was a busy day for me inspite of being it a weekend. I had to take care of my home yard which had grown wild(in US you have to cut your own lawn grass, good exercise huh!!) and had to finish some other errands.

After finishing all of them, I got ready quickly in 15min or so. My wife who was just helping me, started getting ready long before me and took forever to finish. I kept asking her "Are you ready my lady?!" like for ten times with little frustrated tone which got worser every time. I am not complaining or anything.

This situation reminded me of the days when my dad use to ask my mom. It was like 15 years ago, we were getting ready to go to my Grandparents house. We were suppose to reach their place for lunch. Its almost 12.30pm. My mom and sisters are still getting ready to leave. My dad was slowly losing his patience and kept asking the same question I asked my wife "Are you folks ready?!" We didn't have car at that time, we had to catch the bus to get to their house. It might take another an hour if we are luckily to get one quickly. Finally they were ready and we reached my grandparents place as usual last at around 2pm.

I hit on the same kinda of situation today with my wife which made me to wonder, Is all women like this takes so long to get ready?! Whats up with that?! I can agree if gals take forever to get ready before marraige because they want to look for the guys. But after marraige, we are only one going to appreciate and see them. Why are they wasting so much time on make up?!

I used to have a habit to go places on time when I was a single man and it totally got flipped around after the marriage. I didn't like it at first but I know I don't have control over it. So I just let it go. But I really like to see this to change for the benefit of both. I know we husbands should wait to see our wives to look great, there is always a limit. We can control the moment but we don't want to. So please understand the concept of time.

Anyways, we were finallly ready to leave home after a wrangle and to reach the place an hour late. We handled it ok, since not many had showed up. I just thought and smiled to myself, I am glad my wife is not bad after all!!

PS: Gals I am not against make up. Just be considerate thats all.
