I've been married for 6 months and it has been a pure delight with the exception of a couple of things. I thought I might share a few of the things I've experienced and some of the solutions I've managed to come up with.
My husband is by far NOT the neatest person. I am constantly picking up after him. He likes to leave food bowls in the living room, clothes on the bathroom floor (or wherever he happens to take them off) shoes in random places, etc.
We lived together for a year and a half before we got married and during that time, I managed to "train" him to put down the toilet seat! yay! He still has the occassional slip up and forgets but for the most part, he's toilet trained! haha.
The biggest problem I have now is laundry. I'd ask him to help, but from previous experience, he just "doesn't do it right." So, I'd rather just do it myself. Well, I would get so frustrated and overwhelmed because I hate laundry so much that it would just pile up higher and higher and be this unmanageable mound. My solution to this is very small loads on a daily or every other day basis. I would MUCH rather spend 10 minutes putting away a small load of laundry than HOURS doing several loads and wasting a whole day. It seems like such a simple solution and I don't know why it took me so long to master it but wow what a difference it makes!
