Second time, laid down ground rules, honey do lists aren’t going to happen. If you think something needs to be done or want a favor, simply ask nicely. Not nagging, you ask once. Possibly twice.
Third time, a stern look extinguished the honey do plague
We have a honey do list and MY work list. My stuff is generally repairs to the house or the trailer. Hers is house stuff but not critical. I try to approach the lists every day but my work hours are from 10 am to 1 pm. the downstairs remote is acting up. it means I need to clean the board and the contacts. three days I have been downstairs and I keep saying, “I gotta get into that”. it’s raining today. This just MIGHT be the day. Unfortunately my work hours do not start until 11 am today as I already went out to the Sally Ann to drop off the unsold goods from the yard sale last weekend and picked up a few plastic buckets from the local Harvey’s.

Three times a honey do list was foisted on me
First time met with genuine laughter.

It looks like things are getting stormy, but not outside…!

Careful there, Gunther. You’re courting a manufactured disaster!
