We are all quite aware of the "honey-do" lists. Every guy (married or not) receives this on a regular basis. However, do not by any means interpret this as actually receiving a physical sheet of paper with a list of things that your wife wants you to complete. Though it took months for me to actually realize that this reality would not come as easy as a grocery list, i finally found that the honey-do list can be presented to you in multiple ways. More ways than I care to share, but you all know where Im going. In the past 2 weeks, here's what I've been asked in some way, shape, or form.
-install a new dining room light fixture
-find a kitchen island that fits in our kitchen
-get new window installed above sink
-pickup christmas tree
-pull decorations from shed
-pickup dog meds from vet
Now I may have missed one or two, but you get the general idea. I had to be reminded a few times.....ok, ok, multiple times, but nevertheless, I finally completed this during lunch today. So in short, I suggest, make your own list and when your done, throw it out. As a result you find a feeling of accomplishment; only to be followed by yet another list.....and that my friends.....never ends.
Personal Note: This list can also come from your mother (also not on paper), whose kitchen table is still in her kitchen, upside down, waiting for legs to be re-attached.
Great idea to write it down. Can you share that tip with my Mr?
