One of those is that he does things that require a ladder...like Christmas lights and replacing light bulbs in the overhead lighting fixtures. He is also responsible for mowing. So Christmas comes and goes every year and spring mowing season comes every year and the only light in the toilet section of our bathroom has been out for 4 months... these are things he should notice or know he needs to do. I refuse to ask him to do it.
When I get tired of it eventually I will call a mowing service and charge it to his credit card... I will ask my son to take down the christmas lights... and I will ask my son to do the bathroom light...
He just proves to me over and over again how unreliable he is.

maybe it is just me but i dont think asking him to do these things is being his mother. i honestly think i would hit the roof if my hubby didnt get these things done . but he does them. i tend to be the one who takes my time getting things done unless my husband asks me to. if he asks me to do something i do it because i know it is important to him . like the dinner he asked me to cook thursday.lol what a pain.
do you think he really knows these things are bothering you if you have not asked him to get them done??? i know with me sometimes i think that other people should just know (especially hubby)these things . but then find out that he has had no clue it was bothering me .and maybe he thinks it is ok with you to not have these things done if you didn't say anything.
please don't be angry at me if i said anything you find offensive .i hope i didn't i love ya bunches but sometimes say things wrong .i do completely understand how frustrating it can be . especially if it seems to go along with other more personal issues like not taking your feelings into consiteration when driving and so on.
