How to improve this space? Please help.The way the previous owners set this up is a bit weird - not sure why they moved from stacked to top loading washer- the space to reach the dryer is super tight - and opposite to the dryer is electrical panel so need to leave that space submitted by /u/orangepjp to r/Remodel [link] [comments]

I ran 3 loads of laundry so figured I'd consolidate and use the jumbo dryer to dry them all at once. Couldn't find the lint trap from the drum inside to clean it out first, but there was what looked like an openable panel on the bottom, so I pulled it open and found this treasure underneath. I want to say it's months worth of buildup but knowing the traffic a shared laundry room sees I have no idea how much time it takes to accumulate cakes this big. that said, it was a very, very satisfying pull to remove them! submitted by /u/aly_bu to r/oddlysatisfying [link] [comments]

I've been with my husband for almost 10 years, married for 2 years. We've always had a pretty great relationship, but lately life has been kicking our asses (issues with health insurance, rising costs of living, work drama, family drama, teenage kid drama, chores building up, paying off debt, never having time to ourselves, etc.) We both have been taking turns being miserable, stressed out, and not our best selves. We try to acknowledge that it's life making us feel this way and we're still good, but sometimes it's hard, you know? We sometimes get snippy or sarcastic with each other, and I hate that. Yesterday, I woke up alone in bed and in a MOOD. I wasn't feeling well, I woke up with a massive, painful cold sore, I was tired and grouchy and just didn't want anything to do with anything. I walked into my kitchen to make myself some coffee, and I noticed my husband sitting on the couch with his back to me and his airpods in his ears. He had no idea I was out of bed and in the kitchen. He was on the phone with one of his childhood best friends who has been having some issues in his own marriage for a long time now. I heard my husband say my name and I froze. I swear I wasn't trying to eavesdrop, I just wanted my coffee. This is what I heard: "I remember when (my name) and I first started dating, I would drive 45 minutes to her parents' house to hang out with her, watch Netflix on the couch until like 4 a.m., then drive back home and get ready for work. I did that shit like 3 or 4 times a week, and I was so tired man. I was so tired, but I didn't mind it, because I just wanted to be around her. We weren't even fooling around or anything because (my son) was still little and sleeping in her room, but it didn't matter because I just loved being around her and couldn't wait to see her again. It's different now because we've been living together and I don't have to do all that driving anymore, and we're stressed out about life and money and stuff...but I still love being around her. That feeling never went away. (My name) is my best friend and she makes me happy as shit, man. The best thing I ever did in my life was marry her. If it weren't for her and (my son), I don't think I would have made it this long. When she's not home, I frigging miss her. When I'm out with you guys, my mind is on her. You and (friend's wife) haven't been good for a long time. I don't remember you guys ever being happy, even when you were first dating. Therapy isn't working for either of you, maybe it's time to pull the plug and find someone who makes you feel the way I feel about her." The way my heart melted like a block of ice. Every negative thought in my head, every eye roll at his socks on the floor, every resentment I had built up just melted away. I walked back into my bedroom, coffee in my hands and tears in my eyes. An hour or so later, he slipped into our bedroom and said "Good morning, love. I see you already have coffee, but do I have some tea for you!" (Meaning the gossip with his friend.) I may not have everything that I want, there may be bills and laundry and dishes piling up, and sure, my car needs new tires and I have no idea where the money for that is coming from, but I am so, so lucky, and I needed that reminder. submitted by /u/mardeexmurder to r/Marriage [link] [comments]

My (27M) husband (27M) and I have been together for over 8 years. To say he’s a workaholic is an understatement. He’s currently a postdoc at a university and typically works 10-12 hours a day during the week and also goes in on weekends for another 4-8 hours. He’s been like this since we met in undergrad. I’ve always been proud of him, but his schedule means almost all of the housework falls on me. I work full time too, but I still do basically 100% of the chores: cleaning, laundry, yard work, car maintenance, groceries, cooking, walking the dog, etc. I’ve asked him in the past if he’d consider working a little less, since he says none of his colleagues work as many hours. Whenever I bring it up, he gets defensive and says I don’t understand how hard he has to work, so I usually drop it. I’ve also tried asking him to help with specific chores, but honestly it often feels like it backfires. For example, if I ask him to clean the kitchen after I cook, he’ll put dishes away in the wrong places, load only half the dirty dishes into the dishwasher, wipe the counters with a wet paper towel, and leave the floor unswept. I end up having to redo it afterward. The one chore I thought was foolproof was putting the trash on the curb. Trash day is the same day every week. I remind him multiple times and he still only does it about half the time. I suggested putting it on his phone calendar and he got offended. He said he’d just set an alarm in the morning, but then he doesn’t. The only thing that works is reminding him as he’s leaving the house, but lately it feels like he intentionally leaves when I’m in the restroom so I can’t ask. At this point I’m starting to feel like he works so much partly to avoid doing anything at home. His mom has even told me that growing up he was always so focused on school that he never really helped with chores either. Now here’s the current issue. His mom is coming to visit this weekend. He loves inviting people to stay with us, but usually he’s gone working until they arrive, which means I’m the one who ends up cleaning the entire house beforehand because I worry about being judged. Since he invited her, I asked him earlier this week if he could at least clean the guest room and guest bathroom (which he’s the only one who uses when we don’t have guests). I also asked if he could handle the living room so my workload would be a little lighter. I asked early in the week and reminded him every day. He kept saying he’d do it later. On Friday morning he promised he would clean it that evening. He didn’t. The next morning he apologized and said he “had to” go into the office. It’s spring break and no one else is there, but now I’m once again expected to clean the guest room and bathroom myself before his mom arrives. At this point I’m seriously considering just leaving it as-is and letting him deal with the consequences. WIBTAH if I refuse to clean it this time? I’m honestly just tired of constantly being promised help and then never getting it. It’s starting to feel like weaponized incompetence. Edit: sorry not entirely sure how edits/updates work but here goes. Thank you all for the support and advice! I decided not to clean the room and restroom in order to focus on the rest of the house. When his mom arrived I apologized about the mess when I took her to the guest room and let her know my husband was supposed to clean it. She didn’t really mind and was understanding of the situation. She raised him after all! To clear some stuff up- we’re both guys. Easy to miss that part lol. He’s definitely not cheating or anything like that. We share locations and he’s always at the office. Plus his colleagues always mention how much time he spends working so I’m confident it’s nothing like that. I feel kinda bad about everyone ragging on him in the replies because I really do love him but just needed to let out my frustration about the housework. I threw out the weaponized incompetence thing but it could just be regular old incompetence when it comes to things outside his field. His love language is words of affirmation while mine is acts of service so he gets incredibly sad when I tell him how to properly do things rather than appreciating his effort. I’ve stopped trying to correct his “methods”because he goes back to doing things his way (low effort or completing half of the task) every time and it always leads to both of us being upset. On some level he knows how bad he is at housework so he just focuses on things he’s really good at. That being said I think you guys had a great idea with getting outside help. I’m going to split up the chores more equitably and have him pay for a maid and landscaping for his portion. Hopefully this will lead to having more time together submitted by /u/MyTraumaDumpy to r/ComfortLevelPod [link] [comments]
