Honey-Do's & Honey-Don'ts

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.
