I admit, I can get feeling the same way -- as if I do it all. That was causing some tension between Lebell and me. Upon talking with each other, we agreed that he would have a to do list with priorities highlighted. When he finishes the tasks, he marks them off. We check in with one another about once a week. When I'm working, this becomes even more important.
The list helped me to see how many home maintenance and big projects he takes on. Although on a day to day basis it may not appear he does as much as me, he does, just in a different way.
As for projects that I want done, he is happy to do them the way he wants to do them and when he wants to do them. Once he says he'll do something, I need to be patient and let him do it, even if it is days later. It will get done!
