Janet, I completely understand the feeling that scouts seems to come first, except my mom is the one I got it from.

It is very frustrating and I agree with Rebecca.....don't do anything and tell him you are waiting for his help if he (that is IF) he notices.

I do have to admit, I love the ideas shared here alot!! I just don't think I could let things go that long....LOL Things like that don't bother him....for instance, he has a four car garage that you can't get a car into. There is so much crap just all over the place that you can't walk more the 3 steps without climbing over something or tripping. I just don't go into his garage anymore. If by chance he puts something in my garage....I just take it and THROW it into his.

Janet, I promise your husband will notice if you stop cooking dinner or stop doing his laundry. Of course he doesn't care about the garage being a mess....out of sight, out of mind, remember? But he will notice something that he is used to getting everyday and one day it is just not there. Trust me on this one. You might just have to think for a second to come up with something really good, but you can do it!

Oh boy, if I tried that, I'd come home to a filthy house and two skeletons, one of my husband and the other of the dog!! My husband would rather starve than make something to eat and if I didn't feed my furball, he'd let him starve too. Not because he is lazy or neglectful, it's that he is a teacher and is extremely overwhelmed by his work. He will forget to eat if I don't remind him. I actually feel sorry for him.

HAHAHA I learned it from my mom and my grandmother. If someone depends on you for something, then you are in control. I do a lot around the house, but I also demand that my husband helps out. If he doesn't do his part, then neither do I!!!!
