[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just schedule it. If you're feeling diplomatic, maybe schedule it for a week or so out, then tell DH: "Hey, I have the handyman coming by next Tuesday for the grout. I can cancel up to 24 hours beforehand, so if you'd rather tackle it yourself over the weekend, feel free."[/quote] This feels like it'll just lead to another fight and she won't get the work done she needs. I'd do what another pp says. When he says, "I'm too busy now, you take care of it." You say, "okay." And don't engage further. Then you schedule the work. I'd probably grey rock the tantrum that may follow. But he'll learn he has to either have a mature conversation and set a time line or let you handle it your way.[/quote]
