[quote=Anonymous]You need to outsource the house cleaning ASAP.  We have someone come twice a month, and that keeps the shower from being totally disgusting and general maintenance.  It also forces DH to put his stuff away before the cleaning people come -- or he can't find them afterwards.  Natural consequences.

If the meals are becoming problematic, you need to meal plan and give him a day or two to be responsible for.  The key is already deciding which days are takeout so he can't outsource that and is instead responsible for actually cooking.  And whoever doesn't cook, cleans up the kitchen.  There may be some discussions about that afterwards -- my family members really like to "soak" pots that don't need to soak.  ;)

Outsource the yardwork if you haven't already so that's off of his plate. DH was pleasantly surprised to realize that the service wouldn't cost as much as he thought.

It's hard to get him to be responsible for the mental toll, so you have to find other ways to get a break.[/quote]
