Interesting idea but luckily he is not particularly hairy, especially in the foot department. Actually the only whim I have refused to do is to drive him to the pub and attempt to enable him to walk up a steep slope to enter the premises. I have said when he can get a shoe (or similar) on his foot then I will take him.yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift thats why its called the present0

You're a hard woman.
Hard but fair.

I am providing him with a tipple at home so am not depriving him totally and his drinking buddies have been visiting so he is not too hard done by. I am upset that I have ruined my nails due to having to do all the washing up. When we got married I told him "I don't do washing up" I have always had a dishwasher. Due to lack of room in our kitchen we could not fit one in and he promised to always do it. I think he owes me BIG TIME.yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift thats why its called the present0

You've been bottling this up for years, haven't you.
So... he does the washing up with his feet?
You let his friends come into the house?0 -
He can't do the washing up as he is on crutches and cannot stand without them. No way are his feet going into my washing up bowl. I am a bit selective re his friends visiting as there are a couple who I have no time for. (more gossipy than the girls and make up what they don't know). And yes I am bottling this up and he will pay sometime in the future.yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift thats why its called the present0

I suggested this to him and he said no way. I offered him a chair to sit on at the table with the bowl and he still said no. Very ungrateful of him I think, he also said to the suggestion of toe hairs "do they think I am some sort of hobbit"!
Anyway best go get him a drink of something.yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift thats why its called the present0
