I made a Honey Do List today of things that I want Terry to accomplish before I go slap ass crazy (which isn't far from where I am now).
Things on the list:
1. Repair the phone jacks.
Something happened to our phone lines a month ago and he had to rewire one circuit and now only two phone jacks work in my house...thankfully one is for the computer modem.
2. Fix the leaky washing machine.
The water pump on my washing machine is leaking and water goes all over my laundry room floor every time I wash clothes.
3. Fix the exhaust fan in the 1/2 bath and the boys bath room.
The fan in the 1/2 bath stopped working about six months ago and the one in the boys bath room just needs the cover put back on it (but it's been down for four years).
4. Haul off the old fridge from the back porch.
Self explanatory.
5. Fix the light fixture in the boy's hallway.
The light flickers when it's turn on. I've taped the switches in the off position to prevent them being turned on. It's been this way for three years.
6. Put the vent tube back on the exhaust pipe of the dryer.
It came off the other day when I had to move the dryer to retrieve a pair of socks that fell between the dryer and the washer.
I should have made this list for him BEFORE deer season began but he didn't piss me off until this past week. I am going on strike (I refuse to clean the house) until at least two of these items get marked off the list as repaired!!
Seems like the poor bastard will be busy for years...or have you been waiting for years to have these things done?
But can his blender Puree a brick?
She's been waiting for years.
Sapphy, you've got strong and untapped slave labor hanging at your house. I think it may be time to tap that resource.
And just for the record, I'm useless in the "repair man" capacity, the only job on your list that I could do is #6, the one with the dryer vent.

Could you give #4 a try?
I must add that I've just recently grown a back bone (or at least something that resembles a back bone).
These things will get done or he's going to be a very unhappy hunter this season.
Good for you, Sapph! I'm behind you 100%!

I don't know, number four sounds like a lot of work! I'll get back to you after football season is over because that cannot be handled during a commercial break. :D
your legs broke or something?
;) of course i'm kidding.
Terry repaired the phone jacks last night, but I have since added a new item to his list. (See #7)
1. Repair the phone jacks.
2. Fix the leaky washing machine.
3. Fix the exhaust fan in the 1/2 bath and the boys bath room.
4. Haul off the old fridge from the back porch.
5. Fix the light fixture in the boy's hallway.
6. Put the vent tube back on the exhaust pipe of the dryer.
7. Replace several shingles that are missing on the roof.
8. Honey do me
He got one item done since Oct. 31?

That would be correct.

I was going to ask you if that was a euphemism.

As long as it's not a reference to a colostomy bag.
And how many have been done now?

He hasn't done any more from the list. asshole.
It's cool. I'm an asshole.
Deer season closes this weekend. This morning he got up to go duck hunting and he got home about 30 minutes ago, changed clothes, loaded his fourwheeler in the back of his truck and has now left the house to go rabbit hunting and beer drinking with his friends.

I hope you've cut him off.
I think you should make about 100 copies of the list and tape them up EVERYWHERE in the house and place them in his belongings. When he opens the medicine cabinet, he'll see it. When he looks in his wallet, he'll pull a copy out. Pockets, drawers, shoes, etc...

And then beat him with a baseball bat.

you were leaking?
/me shoots swolt in the face. And not in the good way.
this is a bit off-topic since we're out of hunting season (i assume), but - is terry a really bad shot or something? with all that hunting, it sounds like you should be up to your elbows in deer and ducks and rabbits and whatever else he hunts. badgers. marmosets.
i'd make xeroxes of that list and wrap them individually around whatever he's using for ammo.

It is now turkey season plus it's gotten warm enough to go fishing...which is what he is doing now. I've stopped complaining about him being gone all the time cuz it means that I have free time that is unsupervised...and I like that!

I think your use of the term "Unsupervised" is indicative of a problem with your relationship.

I was attempting humor. It doesn't come across in print very well.
