Hooray!<br /><br />He will never, ever notice. Ever. And when you finally reach your Ultimate Level Of Frustration about something else and say, "And you didn't even notice that I touched up all the crappy paint spots and repainted the door!", he will say, "Oh! You did!? Wow. Well...great." <br /><br />And it will not help you at all.Nancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627214346956206283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8679304203742128093.post-72803463389145760342021-07-08T09:03:15.208-04:002021-07-08T09:03:15.208-04:00I laughed to think of him not noticing.

I always feel a bit put out when I do a big job and no one notices, like washing all the kitchen cupboards. Well, I guess it's kind of hard to tell for that BUT I WANT SOMEONE TO NOTICE.

He never noticed and I was so offended. And he rarely used the linen closet. I now laugh at my silly younger self. In my old age, I'm able to laugh at what he doesn't notice. Hoping the dreaded door gets a face lift you embrace.
