I really hate the word Nag. I hate that it portrays the wife as the "bad guy". I'm NOT the bad guy. In fact, I'm the guy who usually DOES the something I'm nagging about because it's just easier to do the damn thing myself.

I'm done with that though. I'm no longer the nagger, no sirree, I'm a Nag on strike.

Let the fridge overflow from the clogged drain tubing. Let the bathroom look 1/2 done because the moulding never gets put up and the toilet paper sit on the counter because the toilet paper holder is sitting in the package in the garage. Let the foyer floor never get done despite the flooring sitting in the basement.... Oh yes, let it be. I pledge to do my best to bite a block of wood when husband forgets to take the trash out because I didn't nag him to take it out. No more "did you call _____ and make that appointment?" or "did you remember that you need to____".

A Nag on strike is a force to be reckoned with. Good luck with that.
