I love my husband, and we already know I am grateful for who he is ~ most days ;)
But, I guess
Why does he walk by (more than once) a basket full of clean unfolded laundry and do nothing?
How come when he cleans up after dinner, and I am thankful for this, there’s always a cup or dish left out and not in the running dishwasher?
How does he go from the kitchen to the family room and forget, in that 2 second distance, what he was suppose to do? (Put out JBird’s Princess Tent)
If its cold out and I ask him to put a jacket on our daughter, why does he returns with it, saying she didn’t want to wear it? Who is the parent?
Why can’t he find the BIG MILK JUG in the fridge? Or his keys hanging on the key holder? Or the towels in the linen closet?
When will he put back something he takes out and uses? I’m tired of finding our hammer anywhere but in the toolbox counter, and not finding the screwdriver when I need to change batteries on a toy.

Should he expect a thank-you for doing something he should do, like take care of our children or mow the lawn?














Oh, yes, my husband is just like this. I can never find anything because he doesn't put things (scissors, tape, markers) back where they belong. And he leaves shoes/clothes/etc. right in the middle of our living room. All.the.time Ugh!
LOL — my favorite husband story is the one about how he cannot see an overflowing kitchen trash can. He can put something on top and walk away while the something topples onto the floor.
He also cannot find anything in the refrigerator, even if it's in plain sight. That's really a man thing.
Seriously!!! I will never understand how their minds work. Thankfully, I suppose!!
Oh! I thought MY hubby was totally distracted. This is a reassuring post :)

Hi,
LOL, I totally don't recognize myself in that description. Does that make me an ideal husband? ;)
I've stumbled upon Your post, thanks in advance for stumbling mine: The top 5 laptops for girls.
It's definitely not just yours! Mine is the same way. I think it bothers me more than it might some people just because I'm SO type A and he's so NOT type A.

All people are different. You can't treat your spouse like a child or expect him to do things the exact way that you will and have him be an equal. I'm the laid back one in my relationship. If my husband complains about the way I do something I'm less likely to do it again at all.

Hi, I just stumbled upon your post.
I am laughing because I'm your husband, and my husband is you. I feel sorry for you both. :)
