[QUOTE="witzend, post: 369563, member: 99"] I was just steaming after this set of conversations with husband and the neighbor, I hit the roof. He insisted that telling Mr. K that he would be available to help him over the next 4 - 6 weekends was not the same as volunteering to be there the next 4 - 6 weekends. Pshaw, I say, because K would call every Saturday and husband would show up. He saw his doctor last month and had the entire month to get a fasting blood draw before a follow up appointment tomorrow. Friday came and he still hadn't done it. So I reminded him Thursday night and Friday morning the third time I told him to get out of bed and go to work. Did he do it? No. So, this morning I got up at 4:45 (couldn't get back to sleep) and took care of the dogs. I'll wake husband up momentarily and tell him that he is welcome to take breakfast with him to work but he is stopping by his doctor's office and getting his blood drawn. Then he's going to make sure that results will be available for his appointment tomorrow or he will reschedule. We had a really good talk about how I have been stressing since before Christmas about his health and that he promised he would get healthy so that he could help around the house without hurting his back or becoming comatose from fatigue. He was supposed to be riding his bike to and from the bus mall on a daily basis months ago by now. Instead, he's ridden it one way 7 times this year. THIS YEAR. He did do a lot of work this weekend trimming low hanging branches off of some trees - something he has been promising for about 3 years. None of his other usual stuff got done though. (No big surprise.) This only after having made it very clear to him that "every minute that he spends working on K's deck will be a minute more that I am angry at him for [I]not[/I] doing one of the many maintenance projects that need to be done at our house." The first call from K came at 10 AM on Saturday. I didn't answer. The next call came at 10:30. I let it go to voicemail and it was his wife asking to borrow a tool. I called back to tell her that we were busy in our yard and she should send Mr. K over to borrow the tool. That's as much as he got out of us this weekend. Tried to get husband out of bed about 15 minutes ago now, he's still not up. I'll go tell him again. It is [I]so[/I] lame nagging your husband to get out of bed and go to work. [/QUOTE]
