Don't understand the husband sometimes. He truly wants to help and please me (I do count my blessings!) BUT he is pretty clueless when it comes to hoursehold chores. This morning we are cleaning for my parents to come for a visit next weekend. He has to be given instructions for each task and he literally does EXACTLY what I say and that only.

Examples:

Me: Please put new rolls of toilet paper in the guest room and the nursery bathroom
Him: He places new rolls on but leaves the old cardboard thingies on the counter in each room and doesn't throw them away.

Me: Unload the dishwasher.
Him: Unloads dishwasher, but leaves dirty dishes in the sink.
I'm like: "now, put the dirty ones into the dishwasher!"

And on and on...Seems pretty obvious to me how to complete these tasks, but its like he just doesn't get it.

Anway, just a vent. I don't quite understand him sometimes
