My problem is the boss will say hey will you go do abc? I say sure and get up to go do abc. On the way to go do abc she will invariably ask if I can do def as well? Sure. So I start doing def. then she will ask if I can do xyz. Yep. So I go do xyz. I finish xyz and go sit back down. Then she gets mad because I have forgotten abc and def.
One thing at a time please!!! I can calculate the drift, drop and lead in my head on a 1000 yard 308 shot but come on quit confusing me!!!![]()

I'm pretty sure thus exact conversation has happened in our house LOL!!!!healthinsp wrote:If I feel like pushing limits I'll have a conversation that goes like this:
Mrs: "Can I ask you to do XYZ"
Me: "Yup"
A certain amount of time has passed
Mrs: "Are you going to do XYZ?!"
Me:" You just asked me if you could ask me to do it. You never asked me to do it."
At least I'm entertained...
My wife can throw a shoe faster than I can run. If that misses, she is a very patient woman. I could be looking over my shoulder for years before she chose the "right moment".suthdj wrote:When she lovingly says "I Love You"
gaze lovingly back into her eyes and say
"So"
then run.
This happens all the time in our household. She's had to learn that while I can manage and juggle umpteen different things if they're all connected to one task, I can NOT balance so much as two unrelated tasks, much less the list of "honey-do's," all at once. She's tried to teach me to "multi-task," saying I'll have to do it with kids, but at this point, she's mostly given up. Hand me one thing to do at a time, simple or complicated, it's no problem. Refloor the living room? No problem. Clean up dog mess? No problem. Design, build, and install a fence? No problem. Design, build, and launch a lunar rov... er, ok, I'm exaggerating a tad.healthinsp wrote:Syntyr wrote:

But never ask me to do the dishes and take out the garbage in the same sentence. Bad things happen.
