My wife doesn't mind too much as long as I have room for said tool, and it won't break the budget for bills. In fact, she'll usually encourage me to buy something I don't necessarily need, but have been wanting. For whatever reason, I've been eyeballing one of those wireless weather stations for years. They are around $100, and could never really justify one. Guess what she gave me for my birthday?
It's probably a good thing she doesn't like the spiders in the basement. It's getting a bit full down there.
