"that's not where it goes."
this can apply to almost anything: rubbish on the bench, dishes on the bench, clothes on the bed, towells hung over doors, newspapers on the coffee table, basically anything on the buffet, empty boxes in the pantry, empty bags in the fridge, empty bottles on the bench ...
you know where it freaking goes, so PUT IT THERE.
that is all.
Dear DH :
Please don't tell me that you can't do any housework during the week cause you're looking after 2 kids - and expect me to do it on the weekend while I look after 2 kids! MEH
When I clear a walkway through your garage / shed / carport, it does NOT mean that it's there for you to dump stuff in. Really. NO.
Finishing the job, any job, includes actually completing it, and putting tools away. Don't nick my tools cause you can't find your own ones! Oh, and can you also finish all those little jobs that you start - like nailing on the other half of the skirting boards, putting locks on doors etc.
Washing up : Just don't do the easy ones! I put my travel mug there so it's clean for the morning, you could actually do it with all the other dishes!
DH - you get 5 days off for working 4 12hr days, so I don't expect much of you for those 4 days, but is it THAT hard to empty the bins if they're over flowing, and I'm clearly busy doing other things??
Also, PUT A NEW DAMN BAG IN!!! We have ONE bin that requires a bag... ONE! Next time there's no bag, and there's stuff in there, you're cleaning it - regardless!
Is it that hard to get some help folding clothes?? You know I HATE doing it, but it's always left for me, and you procrastinate helping me all the time til I am forced to do it because we have no clothes left.
Also, I keep asking you if you want a clothes basket in the spare room where you get dressed, every single time, you say "no, I'll put the clothes out/in the basket in our room" THEN DO IT!!! Don't leave clothes lying everywhere all over the room and bathroom!! The basket is like 3 feet away!!!!!
Rant over.

Dear children,
If your so worried about toys you can't find please actually put them back.
DP - I know you work your butt off 7 days a week for us and I know our house is not spotless but I can't do everything with 2 kids, while I don't expect you to do it PLEASE cut me some slack or atleast put your clothes in a basket or remember where YOU put that jumper your missing rather than 'joking' ive lost it along with all your white socks.
Oh and our girls are sick, NOTHING is getting do e today.
Sent from my iPhone, more than likely while I should be doing something else!
... and I'm back!
Dear husband I love having a clean house but need your assistance seeing as the 4 kids, 2 ducks, 2 chooks and 3 cats don't clean up after themselves, maybe the adults could do it together?
Thanks disgruntled wife
Dear Husband,
I love you dearly, but I do not like bashing my shins on the kitchen drawers you seem to be incapable of closing. Shut the damn drawer!
Your bruised wife.
