I'm a woman. I'm a wife. I'm a mother. You add this together and you come up with nag...apparently. I tend to err on the side of neat and clean while Steve is the opposite. He claims no one can ever possibly be "Kerry" clean but I disagree; argument for another time.
The other difference is I know I can't focus unless I'm looking at the person talking and if they are going to talk for long you are going to have a very spaced out looking Kerry 30 minutes in. That is my max. I can, however, multitask like a champ. Steve...cannot.
This is an ongoing argument. He claims he is listening but he isn't and usually an argument breaks out. Today didn't end in the usual way.
Having a snow day threw me off my game and I was desperately trying to get a few things done for work before Steve left.
I am going to insert a photo here.
When I left the bedroom to find Steve there was only the basket on the chair....NOTHING ELSE. I asked Steve to get the girls and in the basket on the chair were their undergarments and socks. Please everyone get theirs out and put them away. I put all the clothes away already.
That was it. Simple task. When I walked in I knew that the pile on the floor was the dirty clothes. How did I know that? Because I had been putting them in the hamper for 2 days as I found them on the floor.
This was amazing to me so I went into the office and asked Steve what he thought I said. He thought I asked him to dump the dirty clothes on the floor by the basket.
Why would I ask you to do that? I have never in my life asked something like that. I always carry the hamper to the laundry room. Whatever! And the kicker was how he left the hamper.
So as it stands he can't multi-task and he doesn't listen and now I have proof....BOOYA!!
