I know he doesn't want to go but maybe catching him in a "good" mood and voicing how you feel and saying he "has" to go of he does nothing else might work? It is ok to set limits of what is ok for you to live with and what isn't. I know you don't expect him to be what he used to be anymore and that helps. You can't change him, only help him try to help himself. It is ok to cut back on things you just don't have time or funds to take care of. Giving yourself permission when you are such a giving person is a trial in itself. If he complains, well, explain the situation and walk away. It isn't a punishment towards him at all even if he might see it that way. You do what you can and deal with it. If he has problems dealing with it, it is up to him to find a way to cope, with meds and therapy. Stay strong.perphilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17191514151838436492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339974062095553185.post-44202775229071730912011-07-25T10:04:52.203-05:002011-07-25T10:04:52.203-05:00From what you say, your hubby doesn't give a c...From what you say, your hubby doesn't give a crap about himself -- horrible diet, obesity, addicted to cigs and soda -- so it's not surprising that he doesn't take pride in keeping up the house and grounds.<br />What does he DO all day when he's not working? You might consider cutting off the cable and the internet.Miz Kizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650747741395559803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339974062095553185.post-88791973099168177732011-07-24T07:42:38.469-05:002011-07-24T07:42:38.469-05:00Sounds like you are in a tight spot.
