I have the annoying habit of nagging. And DH has the annoying habit of not being in a rush to do anything. Obviously those don't go well together.
Well, I asked DH to move the Christmas decorations to the basement from our upstairs bedroom. We used to store them in the upstairs crawl space, but I cleared out a spot in the basement. Usually I do things like this myself, but they are huge tubs (as in I could fit in them and close the bin).
Anyway, I asked him New Years Eve. He always says that if I don't nag, he'd do it when he got around to doing it. I gave it a test and have bit my tongue oh so many times. Well, today, those bins are gone!
He really does follow through on his word if I give him a chance...even if his timeline doesn't match mine. ![]()
Re: DH follows through on his word...
This is me, I can't stand when DH decides he wants something done at this very second when I'm in the middle of something else. If he gives me a hard time about not doing something on his timeline I let my stubborn side take over and will not budge until I am good and ready.
