You're missing a trick there, you need to employ someone to do the work you do.

Take care of yourself, and don’t over do it MH
I appreciate your empathy, and I definitely need to slow down. I've just checked my little job's address this morning and my app shows it's a 4 mnutes drive away so I'm hoping I don't get any traffic.

I can't believe that my expected 2-3 hour job today took almost 4 hours, so I think I deserve a holiday!

I wasn’t looking for sympathy, but I will take any that's offered to me.

I work 15 hours per week! More than enough! Currently having my hair done, so dibbing away.
We expect a full trip report and pics of any raw chicken you might get served up!

No chance of me ever going back to Texas Roadhouse (more like Texas Road kill).

My wife cuts my hair which doesn't take too long as there isn't as much to cut as there once was, but my wife is paying a fortune tomorrow to have her eye brows, finger and toe nails done at a beauty salon (as opposed to the oriental nail bars that only accept cash and the staff are chained up). I Told her I would trim her brows and stick some nail polish on her finger nails and toes, but she just ignored me (where's the justice?).

15 hours a week is about right to work, and I don't usually work anymore than that.

All the jobs around the home I planned to do before going away will have to wait until after my holiday because I have done enough work for other people this week, and it will be too hot to do anything. I actually had a customer ask me if I would do a job for them tomorrow, and they got the hump when I said I don't work Saturdays! It makes me laugh that some people who work mon-fri expect a tradesperson to work mon-fri and the weekend (they don't know I don't work mon-fri).

I've just been to Sainsburys to get my oyster bay because it's my last alcohol drink until I return from Florida.

Anyway, I'm now rambling, which is unlike me

We went to Texas Roadhouse in Bradenton and it was lovely, people do have a cheek expecting dh to work for nothing when they don’t work for nothing! Time to rest now before your holiday, maybe you should go with your wife and get your hairy arms waxed and Mickey Mouse shaved on your chest!

Your dear wife needs to look her best in Club World, so let her get herself looking polished. As Sandra said above, get some waxing done on your arms, it will save a fortune on suncream, all that hair soaks it up like crazy!
Seems strange that you don’t drink in Florida! Too many cocktails to tempt me! Check out the winery at Formosa Gardens, it’s supposed to be very good.

No joke I've just had a lady on the phone wanting a quote and I told her I can’t quote for a few weeks, and she said can’t I pop over the next couple of days. I said no, I don’t work Saturday or Sunday!

I never touch a sip of wine/alcohol when in Florida or on the flights. Even when villa owners have left us a bottle of wine, we don’t drink it.

I am very self conscious of my hairy arms thanks to you guys that I’m going to trim them when I trim my other bits😁
