LMAO! I was just thinking the same thing. I think you just opened the proverbial Pandora's Box here!
Let's see ....
How he makes ME do all the discipline with the kids while he does all the fun stuff ... so I end up looking like the evil mother/step-mother and he looks like super dad.
How he feeds my formerly well-trained dogs the table scraps, right from the table, and has turned them into obnoxious beggars.
How he procrastinates about EVERYthing ... like taking a YEAR to finally do something that takes ten minutes to complete.
How he never sorts the laundry ... whites with reds with blues.
How he always wanders off when we are ready to do something else .... for example, I'll say, "Dinner in ten minutes." Everyone else is downstairs for dinner in ten minutes .... no hubby. Why? Because five minutes ago he got in the truck and wandered down to the store to buy a newspaper.
How he only remembers to take his wet/muddy boots off outside after he tracks up the entire kitchen first.
And here's my super petty one, but it drives me NUTS ... how he will use or open something, and just leave the empty package there. He will use the last razor blade, leave the plastic container in the medicine chest. He will buy something at the store to fix something around the house, and leave the empty box/plastic bag/cardboard backing laying where ever he did the project ... whether it be a shelf in the garage or the middle of the living room floor ... and just wander away.
I could go on and on and on and on and on ....
But, I try to always remember, for all his bad habits and annoying traits, I've go just as many, I'm sure. And he truly is a kind, loving man at heart. If it wasn't for those darn empty packages laying all over ....
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
