    Default Dh Tried to Help

    Dh was being sweet yesterday, and while I was at a birthday party with Julia, he did laundry. However, he didn't hang a single thing to dry, and dried in really small loads because the dryer doesn't work well to begin with. I didn't say anything to him because he was being kind to help out with the laundry, because he knew how tired I'd be when I got home, but the gas bill!

    I think the same thing! His big thing is the dishes. Two dishes and he runs them through the dish washer

    Awe what a sweet guy to help out.

    My dh is the same way, although it's when he does the dishes too. I grit my teeth and don't say anything because dishes aren't my favorite thing to do. I won't let him touch the laundry!!!

    At least it was only one day; I don't think it will have too much of an effect on your bill.

    What a great guy to want to help you out.....even if he didn't do it your way.

    That happens here too. I just smile and say thank you! If I say anything, there may not be a next time.
