I planned on a nice relaxing day today but the man is here and it's hard to relax with the energizer bunny hopping around asking if there's anything I'd like him to do. Yes, go outside and don't come back for a really long time. I know that's mean and I know I'm lucky but he's been bopping around since 8 am and I'm tired watching him now.
I completely understand. 'What can I do to help?'..... sit there and pretend you're not here because I've got stuff to do.
Yessss! That's pretty much what happens. I say to him "I love you and I love having you here but I'm gonna pretend you're not here because you're messing up my system". ๐
Tell him the dog needs a walk. That's what I did last night!
He already has.
Teach him to use the vacuum cleaner ... he'll find something to do real quick.
He already went to do that and I said no. He's currently outside cleaning the fan.
send him over here, we got lawns that need mowin' and our resident ADHD is off taking his referral diagnosis to a gp to refer him a psychologist who can approve his referral and refer him back to a GP to prescribe meds
Make him do the cooking and clean up.
