Why ..


... do men make excuses up why they don't do the house work

Mine says things like:

"you got there before me"

"I was busy doing ..... for you" OK so can't help for 5 minutes!

You are using the wrong strategy

Next time when there is something to be done (yep I know there is always something to be done ) you just call him and tell him...

...Hun, I want to share with you a certain kind of feeling of success - if you go into the kitchen there is lunch waiting to be cooked and a kitchen to be cleaned - no need to worry - I just sit down here and give you a realistic chance to get there first!!!

BECAUSE MOST MEN WERE RAISED BY THEIR FATHERS, WHO WHERE RAISED BY THEIR FATHERS ETC. LAST TIME I CHECKED FATHERS ARE GUYS. IT IS SOME LAME BLACK BOOK OF LAME EXCUSES TO GET OUT OF HOUSE WORK. THEN THE MAN GOES IN THEIR SPACE TO TINKER ON SOMETHING SO THEY LOOK LIKE THEY ARE KEEPING BUSY OR FIXING SOMETHING SO THE WOMEN WONT BOTHER THEM AND SHE JUST PICKES UP HIS CRAP.
