Here is the history of the mirror:
1. Husband declares we need a stud finder before he can put said mirror up.
- Stud finder purchased a few days later.
- Stud finder squirrelled away.
2. Weeks later I say I want to put the mirror up (and before anyone says to me: If you wanted it up, why didn't you just do it yourself? I simply can't. The mirror weighs a ton and is too long for me to easily handle by my lonesome. I need muscles.)
- Stud finder comes out of hiding.
- I use stud finder to figure out where mirror should go.
- This annoys husband because he didn't get to use his new toy.
- I don't like messing around, hence, I took over the stud finding portion of the mirror hanging.
- Husband declares we don't have the correct type of screws due to suggested length of screws on box.
3. Weeks later we go to Lowes and buy a good supply of screws.
4. Weeks and weeks pass by, and last Sunday I declare I want to hang up the mirror.
- This will be the first time we've taken the mirror out of the box.
- We see that the screws have to go in holes, not on a wire or ledge as we both assumed.
- I have to remeasure the wall to get the mirror centered, which also includes using the stud finder to ensure new holes will be drilled into studs.
- Tempers begin to flare on the other end of this relationship for reasons I'm still unsure of.
- I ask a simple question about how high the mirror should go and get my head bitten off.
- I walk away.
- Fight ensues.
- He walks away.
- I follow.
- Fight continues.
- I give up and lay down.
- Eventually we make up.
5. The mirror is still not up on the wall, and I will be blaming it for the cause of our divorce.
