Why Does He Ignore Me? No “Dishwasher Fairy” Lives In This House.
Annabelle’s ONE didn’t take the clean dishes out of the dishwasher this morning.
She believes she is being ignored.
Setting:
Annabelle’s Weekly Visit With Her Network– Lori, Dylan, and Katy
Event:
Lori: Annabelle, what is your topic for today?
Annabelle: My ONE is “Toast” when he gets home tonight!
Lori: OK…What’s up?
Annabelle: He didn’t take the clean dishes out of the dishwasher this morning as I asked him to before he left.
There’s no “Dishwasher Fairy” living in this house.
Dylan: Is his behavior sporadic or constant?
Annabelle: It’s starting to become constant.
Today is the third time this week I told him to take them out.
Katy: It does look like it may be becoming a habit.
Annabelle: May be? It “IS” in my book!
I don’t like being ignored and unappreciated.

Lori: I don’t think you mean the “or else’.
Annabelle: Yes, I do.
I’m done with this and he IS going to change!
Dylan: Let’s think about this a moment.
