I feel for ya.

I had a situation happen with my 71 Owners Manual that came with the truck.

It was on the coffee table as I was reading it all the time. It was on the table for about 3 days & I went to read it and saw an 800 number written on the front.

I asked the wife if she did it (I knew she did cause our cats can't spell) and she said "well, that is my handwriting" and then she stated "Gee, what was that number for anyway? I don't remember."

My unspoken thought was "it must have been pretty dang important if you had to write it on the cover of a mint 42 year old owners manual and you can't even remember what the darn number was for"

The sad thing, there was a big pad of paper right under the table. Apparently it was further out of reach and not as convenient as the owners manual.

I concur, oh well.

I have now put my mint factory service and overhaul manuals out of her reach.

I sometimes just shake my head and ask myself "what the heck was she thinking?"

I'll give everyone 10 to 1 odds she wouldn't have done that to her Fendi purse or Gucci shoes.
