John here is a non car related tip that might work.
Make sure that you half finish one job, preferably one that the little woman agrees is just so hard to complete, that allthough she may whine she accepts that you are trying but it is difficult to get around.
Here is my example- Pulled the bathroom appart before our eldest child was born. worked real hard & got around no bathroom by useing neighbours etc. got it finished looked great but didn't paint. Had some frequent requests to finish but whilst I've got this one thing to do I don't get bugged to do anything else, you see its just too hard when everyone wants to use a bathroom; All the time this has gone on I've done up a few cars & filled sheds with allsorts of projects, (you see you can fiddle with a car anytime).
Time frame this has gone on for????
Well the wife had the baby, & she started High School this year.
Give it a go.
