I'm Home!

Last night, I finally got to sleep in my big comfy bed! Oh..how I missed that bed.

Let's take a look at how the hubs did while I was away...

As you may remember...I left him a list of things to do...how many do you think he did?? 2? 3? Let's see:
  • Get yourself up on time for work...and don't make me worry that you are going to sleep the morning away. Remember to set your own alarm because I won't be there to wake you up. Check for setting his own alarm...but apparently he laid there for quite some time the first morning, waiting for me to wake him up. I give him 1/2 a point.
  • Make sure to turn off the electric blanket when you get up from the couch. Sometimes I come home in the afternoon and it is still on...Wasn't on when I got home...gold star!
  • Get the mail Check!
  • Actually go through the mail...leave all of the bills for me...and throw out the junk mail He went through his junk mail...and left me mine. How sweet...1/2 point.
  • Take out the trash on Monday...and please, please, please put a new trash bag in (including the one in the bedroom that has been missing one for a week) He gets two points for this just because I thought for sure he would not put a new trash bag in the bedroom...and he did!
  • Put away your clothes that I washed tonight Big fat no to this one...
  • If I could come home to no dishes on the counter I would be the happiest wife you have EVER seen This was by far the most important...and it happened!! There were still dishes drying in the rack from when I left...but I guess I didn't put that on the list...so how can I fault him for that, right?
  • Bring in the newspapers and put them in the box I have in the "dining room"...not all over the floor I found some in the garage...and the Sunday paper by the door...which means it was sitting there for 5 days. Boo.
  • Use the chicken I left you soon Used 1/2
  • Throw it out before I get home if you don't I did this today...no points for you sir!
  • Please don't buy a bunch of junk food at the grocery...you saw what I did to those cupcakes I don't think he bought anything at the store...oh wait...I found the ice cream he bought last night...
  • Make sure The Hills, The Biggest Loser, Grey's, The Office, 30 Rock, and Days of Our Lives are all DVR'd Check!
  • Check daily to make sure there is enough space left on the DVR...and if there is not...delete your crap shows Check!

So how did he do?? 7 1/2 out of 13. Well...more than 1/2!

What did I really expect anyways...a miracle!?!

His hug made up for the rest. I sure do miss that boy when he's not around...

Pretty much the only one of those I can get my bf to do is take out the trash. But he hasn't yet figured out how to put a new trash bag on. Good Job on finding a good one!
