My husband of 47 years is amazing. He has pitched in on every aspect of housework all the years of our marriage. I can relate to the explicit directions that are sometimes needed and when I'm ready to tear my hair out I think I'd rather do it myself. But, he tries and a lot of men won't even do that. He doesn't understand how I can get so excited over a piece of cloth, but he will wait an hour for dinner when a project is close to completion.
