OOOHHHH it drives me nuts. I'm a perfectionist and you'd think after this many years some of me would have rubbed off a little bit. I do have to give him credit (as much as it kills me) he does tell me how nice everything always looks.
No, Janet. You are just a kinder person than I am! My husband probably thinks I'm evil!

Believe you me, I have my "off the dial" moments too. He just goes to the garage and hides, or sits there with his head down, (pity look) while I go off like a nut case. I still like the idea of men coming with a hook on the back of their neck, so when we're done with them, we can just hang them up in the back of the closet till we need them again.. OR maybe they should come with a remote control..that could be fun!!!!

Y'all are so crazy, but believe me from time to time we all feel your pain. My house is a mess right now. I'm away from the house 11+ hours a day. My husband and daughter, who is still at home, leave after I do, they are home at lunch and some during the day, and are home before me. I can leave in the morning with the house looking pretty good, and when I get home..... I'm embarrassed to describe what I find sometimes. I commented to my husband this evening that "we" are a bunch of slobs, not wanting to point any fingers, because that gets me in trouble. Ya know what his response was, "and isn't it wonderful?"

My husband helps, as I've said in a previous thread. He put a load of clothes in to wash tonight, but he's mostly into project work, not maintenance. If you understand what I mean.

Sorry, but I had to vent a little, too.

The ice maker helps, but we have one with the dispenser on the front. Cubes overshoot the glass, fall on the floor, and it's just water, right? At least that's the way men seem to think, so the cubes melt into cool puddles, just waiting for your bare feet.

I think I'm just going to make a daily log!! Last night I reminded my husband to put his dirty dishes away. I come back to the kitchen and they are in the sink...GGGRRRR the freakin dish washer is right beside the sink... So while he was outside I put them all back on the table (looked like he finished and left) he came back in and stood there looking for a minute like...duh, didn't I put those away...then he looked at me and said..."oh I get it" and then put them in the dishwasher. I think while I'm on the computer I'm going to make signs and hang them up for him to read....some men just need instructions I guess.

They are so clueless!! You can say the same thing in 20 different languages and they still wouldn't get it.
