I can be, have been, and will probably be called a NAG.
I grew up differently from Steve. Not to mention when we came into marriage - both of us were scarred from previous marriages.
I firmly believe you get out of bed in the morning and get moving - no laying around. That is how I was raised. You don't dilly dally. You get your stuff done. And there is always something to be done. Now admittedly I have learned to relax more and not stress about a little dust, etc.
We were painting a room - Steve said he was going to do it. We moved all furniture out, etc. Leaving house in disarray - I don't do disarray. It drives me insane. He has been off this week -and it was killing me for him not to be painting yesterday when I was work!
I get home, no painting done. I hold my tongue - I refuse to nag! But mind sure was!
But last night - after dinner - he starts painting and paints until about 2:00.
The lesson is - be patient, be flexible and don't nag! It will get done, maybe not how you (I) like it - but it will.
I so appreciate the freshly painted room!
