If I had known it was not done last week I would have intervened. I need to become better about follow-through!
I tend to procrastinate too, but he is definitely worse. If I let the kids stay overnight he will probably take that as meaning he can go to the gym, play video games, etc, then tell her he is ready to start at 10:00 PM. I am seriously not kidding about this. In the waining months of our marriage when he was still living at home he did exactly this on a video project. She was in 3rd grade and he came home at 9:30 at night (hours after I called him repeatedly while he was at OW's house) to work with her. I had already taken the video camera and done it with her at that point. And it wasn't great, not professional looking according to him, but it was done.
