[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi Honey,

It’s me.  I just want to clarify a couple things.  You say that you’re the exact opposite of me – very laid back and patient, even-keeled.  What you forget to mention is that you are so laid back, you let things slide that need to get done and don’t care about (and eventually leave for me to clean up) a lot of things that matter to me.

You mention ALL you do around the house but not that your work schedule (plus commute) is a 1000 times better than mine and therefore we decided that you’re responsible for those things you mention you do.  And yet, after telling you a hundred times what needs to get done and how, you still do the BARE minimum and “forget” or don’t bother to figure out how to hang my office clothes so they don’t wrinkle or to get certain foods on the shopping list or even that CLEANING THE KITCHEN DOES NOT JUST MEAN PUTTING DISHES IN THE DISHWASHER but also wiping counters, sweeping floors, etc.

You forgot to mention that when toddler is making a mess and I say “you’re getting food all over the floor” I’m saying it because you let the food stay on the floor for days and don’t sweep it up.  You forgot to mention that when I say “you’re getting food on my clothes” it’s because I have to get to work and I could only find one clean shirt and if it gets dirty I’m shit out of luck.  And you forgot to mention that when I’m saying all this, you just sit there, ignoring the situation while I’m running around trying to do a 100 things at the same time and act like there’s not a care in the world.

We have a division of labor and you’re not holding up your end of the bargain.  You half-ass it and I am losing my temper because I’ve tried telling you, talking to you, showing you and NOTHING WORKS.

You know that if you slack off long enough I’ll just do it.  You know what?  I’m sick and tired of it and don’t know what else to do but throw my phone at you to get you to step it up.

Oh, and by the way, you aren’t just “telling me in the most gentle way” to have patience.  You are full-on ignoring me until I throw the phone and then you tell me to calm down.  Be real.
