House Cleaning
I came down with the flu and wanted my husband to do some of the housecleaning. I wasn’t sure how to tell him, so I tried reverse psychology.
“Honey, I’m sorry I’m leaving you with such a mess,” I said between sniffles. “The laundry needs to be done, the dishes washed, the floors cleaned.”
“Don’t you worry,” he said sympathetically. “It can all wait until you feel up to it.”
