Haha! I could have written this, but my husband has always been the reserved, quiet type. I'm the outgoing tenacious one & his inattention to details doesn't bother me one bit. Good luck op.

This is funny! You're making the best out of the situation. Inspiration.

I ask myself if I am high-maintenance and/or hypercritical, and whether, honestly, I am a task-master who likes to tell others (including my husband) not only what to do but how to do it.

I remind myself that the alternative (raising my child all alone) is worse than doing everything myself but at least having a babysitter handy I want to run to the store at night or want to go running in the mornings.

For those of you that have an inattentive spouse, how do you handle it? Thank you for any help.
