Ok, need your opinion here. I never know what is right to do anymore. So I have two jobs around the house that I need done: fix a cable line and put up an LCD TV on the wall and to assemble a cabinet shelf. H is very handy and he normally does these things for around the house. Should I ask him?

My mom and friend thinks that I should ask him to do them still since he has all the time to run around with OW and I shouldn't worry about getting him to do this for me. My mom's opinion is that I am still his wife and at some point he will need me and that even if something should happen to him I would be the one that would have to take care of him. I did mention to H about the cable and he said he would take care of it for me. No date given but that's usually him. My alternative is to get the cable company to come out and I would have to pay them and I would then have to get my contractor who I would have to tip.

So should I get H? On my hand, I feel like why should I have to put out $$ when his butt is there and I have done plenty for him and he worked out on me. Then on the other hand I don't want to come across needy. Opinions please!! Thanks.
