"Honey-Do" Lists

There's an old saying "Happy Wife Happy Life" and it is often tossed out when there are chores to be done. I suppose we should update this saying by changing it to "Happy Spouse Happy House" so as to not offend anyone. (omg I'm a poet and I didn't even know it)... Anyway to get this post back on topic, most of us have some sort of "To-Do" list compiled whether in our heads or on paper or on our cell phones that needs to be attended to. Sure there are the regular weekly chores like taking out the garbage and mowing the lawn but I'm talking about the random other things that crop up when you're trying to maintain a house. These are the things that you most likely don't have all the stuff necessary to complete without going to the hardware store or the paint store or the lumber yard... well you get the point. These are the chores that at the risk of being sexist are exemplified by the old axiom "If a man promises to do something, there's no need to remind him about it every 6 months"...


The nerve center of my house has always been controlled by my lovely bride. Lord knows how I would be living today if it wasn't for all the years of her loving guidance. From her office (my sons abandoned bedroom with an Ikea desk now in it) my wife hollars out the door, down the hall and downstairs to me what she wants taken care of. The tasks are typical to most homes, Burnt out Lightbulbs or Light Switches not working, Bathroom Fans that make noise, The Deck need Pressure Washing, The Smoke Detectors need new Batteries, The Front Door needs Weather Stripping, the Garage Door Opener isn't working, the Garbage Disposer is Broken and the Faucet is Leaking in the Kitchen and on and on. Well what I can tell you is my house is no different than anybody elses. I fully embody the previously mentioned axiom and I'll add to that the axiom about the "Cobblers Kids wearing Worn out Shoes" but hey I do all the aformentioned stuff at work everyday for nice people like you. And just so you don't think I'm a horrible husband you should know that my wife is a Dental Hygienist and she doesn't come home and clean my teeth so... ( I sure hope she doesn't read this) If you know her please don't tell her... No really, I'll give you a discount if you don't tell her.


So if you have a spouse that simply isn't getting your list done or you are the spouse and you need help completing your "Honey-Do" list, I can help, give me a call. "Better Call Kevin"
