H has been home with his back out for the past 3 weeks. He has been seeing a chiropractor and says its getting better, but its real slow going.
About 5 months ago we made an agreement that I would take care of some things around the house and so would he. My big assignment was to check into putting new windows in the house. (house was built in 1974) His was to check into getting a new AC unit. Well, my assignment is done, just waiting for them to call when the new windows come in and set up a date to do the replacing. He has yet to call anyone about the AC. I mentioned it a while ago and he said he would get around to it. This morning when I was leaving for work I light heartedly said it might be a good day to call about the AC. He gave me a dirty look and told he he would get around to it when he did.
I know he is goind stir crazy, he can't do much at this point, but says he isn't in much pain really, just uncomfortable. He is such a procrastonater it drives me wacko. 2 months ago I blew all the leaves and gum balls in the back yard into piles so it would be easier for him to haul out of the fence and into the woods for disposal. Well guess what? He never got around to doing it and now he CAN'T because of his back. I asked him to check around, look in the yellow pages, whatever to find someone to take care of this. (we are having a cookout next weekend) Has he done that? NOOOOOOOOOOO Its just another of a long line of things he won't do, like go to the drs about his ED problems. There is no reason he can't make some calls to get these things taken care of. It took me 4 months last year to get him to replace a sink faucet in the bathroom, and 2 months to hook up a new dryer which sat in the middle of the basement floor while the old one sounded like it was croaking
I have been doing everything the past 3 weeks, all the cleaning, all the cooking, all the grass mowing, except for the back yard which I can't do because of the piles of stuff in it. Any suggestions on getting him to even just make a few calls while he is home doing nothing except playing computer games and watching tv?
