Last night , when I arrived home from the office , the kitchen was a mess .
Husband is still out , so I put everything in order .
When he arrived , after greeting him , I started telling him that when he washes the dishes after I leave for office , he should also put the things at the dining room in order . I keep talking and he simply was just at the computer .
I know he was listening , and after a while he told me with a bit of annoyance “you have said what is there to say so please stop now ".
So I told him , “ just remember all that l have said ha “ and stopped talking already . 
In a little while , he is on his joker self and we're both kidding each other already .
As wives , we should know when to stop talking right guys ?

Silent mode is woman's secret weapon. We can use it when we read the sign our man don't want to listen too much ( do we talk too much actually? ). And we can use it to show that we don't like how things gone this way. When I'm silent I remember that I will hit him in time later

Does your last line mean that you remain silent and you keep thinking when to retaliate or take revenge?

Haha! Once I am on a "silent mode" he knows that there is something wrong. I am not that girl anymore who will recite all the things. I just do and correct what is wrong and he observes. Then next time he will not do it again. Haha!

@redvakaurvaki is right, silent mode is our secret weapon. I have nothing to discuss about dishes with my husband, because this is not something he takes care off.

So what does your husband do to help you when at home ?
My husband does the dishes in the morning , because i have to go to work . Good if the in-laws are there , because mother-in-law likes to wash the dishes in the morning . . But they are with my gay brother-in-law in the next province now and they do this, every other week .

I think men have a deaf ear. I have complained forever about throwing trash in the can and not leaving it by the door or in a box that needs to be broken down. So finally I got tired of talking and did the same thing. He keeps a bucket by the door to throw scraps in for the chickens. So the other day I just picked up all his trash again and threw it in the two cans. So that night I took all my trash from cooking and the scraps and threw them all in his bucket. Wow did he explode. He said to me this isn't for trash it's for my chickens. I busted up laughing and told him now you get my point. The ledge here by the trash can's isn't for your trash the cans are right there. So if you don't want trash in your chicken bucket throw your trash in the cans and don't leave it here on the ledge for me to do it. Otherwise I will continue to throw my trash in your chicken bucket. Then you can learn to throw it away like I have to do for you. Guess what it worked. So far so good no trash left on the ledge right now and it is all in the cans where it belongs.

@SIMPLYD Yah stop complaining and starting doing like them. They get the hint really fast. Or as least mine did. He was so mad I had thrown a can of tomato sauce, a plastic from the rice, and a few some paper towels and some other things in his chicken bucked along with food. He had to dig them all out. I normally have to do this for him. I thought it was time he saw how it felt. One time he kept leaving tons of stuff all over the house. I told him next time he could find it in the trash. He laughed and kept doing it. So I threw them away. When he went looking for them he asked me. said oh I cleaned house today and threw all the stuff away that was laying around the living room to save time putting it away. I thought you wouldn't mind because you don't like putting your stuff away. I just was saving you time. I am very bad and I can take it for so .long and then I just throw it away or do like he does. I get my point across rather quickly works every time.

My husband was off from work today and it looks like he spent the whole day playing his video games. I'm sick of telling him how much I have to do around here. He knows how I feel about him playing video games all day long. If I start to complain about it again he'll just get angry with me. He has a million excuses for why he doesn't do anything around here. It just aggravates me and right now I'm really annoyed at him and don't even want to think about it.. otherwise I might start thinking of kicking his lazy butt to the curb! LOL

@poehere I am so like you !
The other night when i arrived home there was no cooked dinner . It's a good thing , i went to the mall to have my shoes repaired . I was already hungry so i ate . When he arrived i told him i ate out because anyway , he didn't cook . He just smirked . When he got hungry , i told him to eat the leftovers at the fridge and so he did .
He learned his lesson . When i arrived last night , he has cooked dinner .

Do like I do. What ever is laying around that he didn't pick up gather it all up and throw it in the trash. I do that to my BF when it gets out of control. Then if he is home and I am with clients all day and he doesn't want to cook but instead watch TV I just get in the car and take myself out to eat alone. He had plenty of time to take something out for dinner and help me out. But if he is so interested in his TV then let his TV cook for him and I go have someone else cook for me.

My hubby doesn't like doing the dishes,he's on the cooking portion which I like most.

When we are the only two left in the house for a week , i cook breakfast , he washes the dishes since i will be going to work already . 
In the late afternoon , he cooks dinner while i wash the dishes after our dinner .
This is an implied arrangement .

@SIMPLYD That is so nice to have that agreement while us my husband always do the cooking start from morning to night if he's around in the house then I always do the dishes.The good thing here is our husband helping us to divide the chore in the house.

Yes, he has too because he is the one left at home to do them when on a time like this where it's me and him on the house left , since the in-laws goes with my gay brother-in-law to the province where he is assigned , every other week .
Besides , he is used to doing them when he sees i am already tired from cleaning the house when it's only the two of us .

It goes both ways. Sometimes the husband needs to be quiet for a while.

I think so too . But my husband is not someone who nags . He would just tell me a one liner then keep quiet .

Could wives stop talking? In my view, it is not possible. Husbands are the easy targets for every wife to fire.

A wife ? I thought you are a woman , all this time .
Anyway , when you meet a girl you more or less try to discover if she has the potential of being a woman with a loud mouth . If she is then , look for another one until you find an understanding one .
