[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what are your husband's strengths as a person?  Surely he is functional in some respects?  Try to leverage them.

I cannot ask my husband to do a lot of things.  If he goes to the grocery store for us, he needs a list.  If he goes to the doctor with our kids, he needs a list.  If he does yardwork without me present, he will probably pull out some of our plants that we've had for 5 years because he thought they were weeds.  I do taxes.  I do bills.  I plan meals.  I cook.  I clean.  I organize.

But he can follow instructions, written down.  He can take care of the cars.  He is good at his job.  He can vacuum.  He can cut the grass and do some limited weeding.  He can do the laundry as long as I fold everything up (he "can't" fold laundry).  It is a little bit pathetic?  Yeah, but as long as I feel our division of labor is fair (thanks to endless lists) it's fine.[/quote]

Mine with a list of 8-10 things (small trip), and pictures of 1 of the most important things WITH THE PRICES on the list STILL CAN'T come home with the right thing 3 times in a row. I can't even give him the shopping anymore and he has more time than I do to do this choice. [/quote]
