Floridagirl1010 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 08:58 am     I didn't see a thread about this so I thought it would be fun to swap stories I'll start - husband never finishes a project! He gets so excited about something but then it never gets finished! |
Dahli | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:14 am     The one thing my almost perfect DH does is - use the dish (tea) TOWEL to wipe things that are not clean! ie: the counter or stove while he's cooking or cleaning - that is a job for the dish CLOTH!! LOL |
Floridagirl1010 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:17 am     LOL! How about using the dish sponge for the floor! I've had to throw away so many "new" sponges b/c he refuses to use a paper towel! |
Midlifer | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:23 am     My DH jumps up from the meal table as soon as we are done to wash/stack dishes. I know that I shouldn't complain, but I like to linger at the table, sip my coffee, etc. |
Ddr1135 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:25 am     Okay, I'll play.....how about quitting his job and telling me over the phone? Yep, that's a pretty annoying thing he did. If fact, it was so annoying I left him & divorced him. That was 7 years ago, but we are still together, just living in separate houses. Can anybody top that, LOL? |
Squaredsc | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:35 am     um no. |
Sweetbabygirl | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:37 am     SBG was gonna comment, but read Ddr's post and became frightened....slowly backing away |
Egbok | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:54 am     (Eggie peeks in) ...whew! I thought this was an Adven thread.... |
Bobbie_552001 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 09:57 am     Runs in thread and turns around and sprints back out, suddenly remembering that she doesn't have a spouse!! |
Weinermr | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:01 am     Egbok, it might as well be. |
Squaredsc | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:02 am     hey! |
Ophiliasgrandma | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:05 am     Oh, my gosh, where does one begin to begin. I guess one of the biggies is like Florida said. Hubby tries so hard to clean up after himself in kitchen. He loves to cook with cast-iron skillets. I've begged, pleaded, cajoled to no avail to get him to wipe them with paper towels and not my nice clean, unstained cloth towles and dishrags. |
Floridagirl1010 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:19 am     How about doing the laundry? In a nutshell he likes to throw EVERYTHING in at one time! Colors ect...and dry ALL of my clothes even my work clothes! I have now asked that he step away from the laundry room I think he did it on purpose LOL Ddr...that was a doozy! |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:24 am     No spouse but a Marriage Material here. He messes with my cooking. We've had big fights about it, and every time he promises he'll leave whatever I'm cooking alone until its done. Within 24 hours he will have done it again - throwing lemon pepper on creamed chicken (yuck), throwing chicken bouillon cubes into a vat of homemade chicken and egg noodles (1 week of doghouse on that), turning off the stove because he thinks dinner's done (when it's not), taking the lid off a pot with dumplings to see how they're doing (O!M!G! he lost his hiney on that one). His own father told him to cut the shit or face castration (Dad learned the hard way, too). He's getting better, but I still won't turn my back on the stove because I know the temptation is too great. The good part, though, is he likes to cook and is good at it, so we switch off. Of course, then we have to cut to the part where MM arranges carrots and french fries on his plate by order of size and crunchiness. That's less of an annoyance than a non-verbal guage of how his day went. The faster they're organized, the worse his day went. If he does it behind my back, I know he's not telling me something. Then I can get annoyed if he doesn't 'fess up. So basically what I'm saying is I have nothing to gripe about. I love him the way he is (but he's learned that my knives are quickly directed toward the hand attached to a fork helping itself to food off my plate). And then there are the shoes . . . |
Bigd | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:25 am     sometimes my husband breathes too loud...... |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:26 am     LOL, Bigd. I'm feelin' ya. |
Ladytex | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:35 am     I'm definitely feelin' ya ... |
Floridagirl1010 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 10:38 am     I want to hear about the shoes...I could probably relate to the amount of shirts my DH owns! 2 closets to my 1!! lol |
Squaredsc | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:06 am     i am sooo not touching this thread. |
Mack | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:20 am     Goddessatlaw, of course, is referring to another thread about leaving shoes laying around the house... However, I would really like to know why it is necessary for huge shoe collections in the first place? My DW has quite a few....actually lots....some of which don't even fit anymore. :-) Now Floridagirl brings up shirt collecting....a time honored tradition of any worthy male. What's wrong with that? A guy can never have too many shirts...or ties...but no more than 5 or 6 pairs of shoes. |
Squaredsc | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:24 am     mack, a word of advice, run. |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:25 am     Mack, that need to own alot of shoes thing is a genetically programmed compulsion, I think. Either your born with it or your not, and if it's there you can't get rid of it. |
Floridagirl1010 | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:30 am     Come on Squared...old b/f's annoying habits? Don't be afraid...we'll walk you through it;) |
Squaredsc | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:31 am     sorry floridagirl, im gracefully bowing out. |
Ophiliasgrandma | Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 11:38 am     How 'bout that old one, leaving the toilet seat up. Hubby hardly ever does it, so I'm never prepared when he does. Plunk goes the keister into the drink. |
