a resolution for each other!

Oh gosh, I wouldn't dare!

Nor me!!!

Scaredy cats!

If I had to write DH's resolution list... well where would I start? Conversely I am so perfect... Maybe I could spend less time on gn the computer??

OK maybe I could just resolve not to repeat myself?

He'd tell me to stop sniffing and I'd tell him to stop being so critical of my DD and SIL.

I've just asked OH for his suggestion and after a bit of consideration he offered: find a hobby that you stick with! That was a surprise...

Mine for him: do some exercise! I think I'm more likely to keep my resolution than him unfortunately! Lol!

Mine for him would be to stop telling people he can't retire as he has to keep me in the manner to which I have become accustomed. His for me ? Should probably refer to relationship thread

Ginny can see how this would be very annoying for you, makes everyone think that you are keeping his nose to the grindstone. Hope he stops!

Mine for OH would be to stop being so critical (of everyone). His for me would be to take more exercise. Perhaps I had better not suggest it!

rosesarered He's lovely really and he says it as a joke. But, it does start to grate after the first couple of times. Have spoken to him about it now and he apologised.

ginny can see what you mean; all jokes lose their novelty when heard for umpteenth time! Mind you, I always thought that neither of us would become the kind of old codgers that repeat themselves with anecdotes of the past, but it seems that we are, as I began saying something to my son the other day and a glazed look came into his eyes!

I asked himself what resolution he would pick for me ---know what he said "Oh I couldn't you are perfect in my eyes "
I think there might have been a little teasing there !
Bless him !!

in a maidenly way !

Surely, saying things over and over are sign of familiarity and content if they are said in a kindly, teasing way. Obviously, one has to have new saying that replace others on an ongoing basis. That works for us - or are we boring - don't answer that!!

Nonu DH says things like that to me but I don't take him too seriously

Nonu wish my DH had said that [ but not likely I have to admit!]Our resolutions are only just holding up , but I am determined to keep on with them, because I think it will help us. I must stop saying things like 'won't you need a coat?' as he is not 5 yrs old and he must stop being critical and 'nitpicking' grrrrrr.

Mine for him, stop biteing his nails and stop twiddling his thumbs.

His for me, stop tuting when he's doing the above
