Notes From A Thoughtful Husband

[KenHigg]

Why not get a gardener? then cupcake can do the house cleaning as its her job, the gardener does the garden and you pay some kid a few bucks to clean the car. . . . . . . . job done and you do sod all. . . . . easy

I can't see myself resting in my easy chair time if I did that... If I happen to go to sleep, I may become a statistic...

I wondered when the blackmail bit would raise its head - totally predictable when you're backed into the corner

*Drops eyes, single tear run down cheek, bottom lip quivers some. The looks up with tears in her dark green eyes* I'm sorry...*drops eyes back down* Sniff....

Way to go Ken ...giving Col a perfectly good argument for stricter gun control.

Here's another trick cupcake hasn't figured out; She keeps asking me to fix the squeaky stairs to the basement but I keep putting it off, how else will I know when she's coming down to check on me?

Bloody 'ell Ken, you need to show her who's boss - we're thoughtful enough as it is, after all, we wait ages for her to get the dinner whilst she does the Hoovering and farting about - we're gagging for food but don't moan.

What more can we do?

So Ken is it because you don't want to, or you don't have the manual dexterity to complete the task? I mean it is only a squeeky step. That should be easy to fix.

Oh no you don't, no pitifull little looks, etc... Your devious female ways have been found out around here today... Remember, you've done played your your trump card - the I love 'The Home Depot' thing...

*bottom lip still quivering a bit* I know not what you speak of Sir.

Actually, I need to make it squeak louder, I can't hear it over the tele sometimes...

If she didn't foul up her job and forget them when she bought groceries last week...

 

[KenHigg]

Fix it and then keep it well-lubricated.

 

[KenHigg]

Fix it and then keep it well-lubricated.

Did you mean to associate these remarks to Sel's 'Lovin' post?

 

[Kraj]

Lol. Well I meant the stair in both respects. But, meh...whatever works.

I like the way the sponsored link says "combat squeaky flooring" and leads to a site for squeak free stairs

Anyway, I think that Selena has made some good points in this discussion, its very frustrating for women to try to keep a neat home when the [so called] man of the house can't be assed to do a few jobs.
It is a joint thing Ken this marriage business. Poor old Cupcake, imagine how she feels. She tries her best for you. . . . . . . .
