You know what - I couldn't find any...

which lead me to googling results for ways to motivate a man...thousands of webpage hits...

motivate a woman...nothing useful to be found.

At first I thought it was because men don't care to motivate women do things...we just exist, nod our heads, and go in the general direction we are told (motivated) to go.

The more I consider the question though, I asked myself how I motivate my wife to do things I want her to do.

alcohol.

ok - mystery solved.

That always works for me........pretend you know nothing and get a good inept, pathetic start on the job.

If I saw my wife making a hash of a job (and I knew she was trying to con me into being motivated) I would probably grab a chair and a beer so I could be comfortable while coaching her efforts.

Yes, I do sleep on the sofa a fair bit. Why do you ask?

Putty ? (eyes closed with head shaking slightly side to side......) Putty is for filling nail holes.

"mud" goes on dry wall.

If he's got the wall built, dry wall hung and mud applied, make sure it's smooth, if not, sand it.... don't use sand paper, use the sanding screen they make for dry wall mud...

Then, two coats of paint on the walls and trim, and you're done.

You can do it... the hot chick in the Home Depot paint department can help.... but be careful, she only works three days a week. The other days, the ugly idiot works the paint department.
