And He's One Of The Good Ones!

Last night my husband and I were bathing Crusher and Bam Bam. I had already put two clean washcloths in the tub. He didn’t realize I had just put two clean washcloths in the tub, so he put two more clean washcloths in the tub. If you’re keeping track, and even if you’re not, that brought the grand total of clean washcloths in the tub to four. I proceeded to spend the next ten minutes while the kids were merrily splashing around explaining to him that he should be more considerate of the laundry.
Yep, I said that. “You should be more considerate of the laundry.” Did I stop there? No. Once you’ve reached a point in the day where you tell your husband he should be more considerate of inanimate objects, it’s important to keep diving down to explore how low the bottom of that pond actually is. I continued on. But please don’t think I was so fatigued and stressed by the end of the day that I droned on and on about laundry. No, I moved onto the dishes.
From my perspective, if I go to the trouble of braving the aisles of the supermarket (Safeway.com), then put the time and energy into putting a hot meal on the table for my family (peel back foil and serve), then the least my husband can do is tirelessly scrub every particle of food from the dishes before strategically loading the dishwasher according to the blueprint I selflessly taped to the front of the dishwasher.
I'm sure our communication breakdown was due in part to gender issues. It is well-documented that men and women harbor inherent differences of biblical proportions. It is really not my desire to perpetuate stereotypes here. No, I’m just kidding, it totally is.
Honestly, Ethan is an amazing husband, but when it comes to his listening skills he sucks eggs. Literally, when I'm talking, he's sucking eggs. If he doesn't listen when I talk, how am I supposed to tell him what to do?


I found your link on another blog and she was right you are hilarious. You surely stated the facts on this one. My husband is the same way ..why do we even bother!

Hi Sheri! I finally got a few free minutes to catch up on your blog! You had me laughing hard!! I feel like a poopy friend for not being more tuned in to all the funny and insightful stuff you've been writing about. I'm sending my sister the sight info. Currently she is preparing her 2 soon to be 3 year old for her well check. I think she may be getting together a study group so that her little peanut makes sure to wow them at the Dr's office. I understand if you can't name a vegetable and a fruit your denied further heath care. Luckily my kids are past the trials of the terrible two's (They're 13 & 10)... I just have to deal with issues that pertain to drugs, sex, and Hillary Duff. Keep up the great work sista!!!
PS Having spell check on your site rocks!

What? Your husband knows where the dishwasher is? Quit your bitching woman--you don't know how good you have it.

My honey actually did laundry this weekend ... well, he pushed a few buttons and poured in the Tide (note: no fabric softner so my towels feel like 40 grit sandpaper).
I folded, hung up and put away. That is after I woke up from passing out at the fact he actually did some laundry.

And this line:
"I'm sure our communication breakdown was due in part to gender issues. It is well-documented that men and women harbor inherent differences of
biblical proportions. It is really not my desire to perpetuate stereotypes here. No, I’m just kidding, it totally is. "
caused me to snort. In the office. So my admin stuck her head in to see if I was okay.

Great Post! We have a little heart on our dishwasher with two sides: Clean and Dirty. I try to change it as I load/unload the dishes, but sometimes my toddler messes with it. The dishes will be piled in the sink, and when I ask my husband why he didn't put them in the washer, he says, "The sign says they're clean..." Aaaaarcgh! Then empty it or check to see if they're dirty!!!
P.S. I, too, like the spell chick.

The only time my husband listens to me is when the words "bedroom" and "naked" are uttered from my mouth in the same sentence!

I think the dishwasher blueprint idea is genius!!!

Now see, at that point in the conversation, where you switched from laundry to the dishes, my husband would have said "Oh great, it must be that time of the month because you are being totally irrational" and then I would have had to give him a swirly in the nearby commode. See how good you've got it???

It always makes me feel so much better when I hear other women say the same thing I feel about my husband every day. I mean, I guess we should be happy that dad is even there to help, but sometimes I just wish he would get it right! And yes, it seems to snowball. One little thing seems to set off 5 other things I can be annoyed with. Poor husbands...what am I saying...poor us!

I've always wanted to learn how to make resin beads and pendants, but never tried it myself until now. This is my very first set of resin beads and resin pendant and for being brand new at this I found that they turned out quite well! I've realized that making resin cabochon is actually quite easy to do, and I plan to make lots more of them to feature in my jewelry projects. Imagine all the fun things you can make, and best of all your resin jewelry will be one-of-a-kind. You can also make your cool unique resin bracelet and sell them unfinished to other jewelry makers, or simply sell the resin pendants with simple necklace cords or chains for instant necklace.
