Sue - I took your advice and refused to go. Told him to call his daughter but, as usual, she was too busy aka nothing in it for her. So he cancelled the apt. and rescheduled it.

I told him to make arrangements to get there because I would use the time he was gone to clean the house so he wouldn't smell anything.

I don't know why, but I feel this is getting to me quicker than it did before.

I want to tell you all his "reason" for refusing to put the empty milk jugs in the outside garbage can.... ready? It is because they fill the can up! Now, when we take the garbage out on Sunday nite and put the jugs in the can there is no problem. I think, but am not certain, that in his mind the jugs have to go on top of the kitchen garbage bags in the outside can. He never use to "think" like this.

He never use to be like that about the milk jugs or the chicken bones. Only the last few years did that stuff start.
