Husbands, how can wives get you to do something without being an old nag?

the best thing I can say is to not raise your voice or throw it in his face that he never fixes anything. Don't call anyone to fix in hopes he gets jealous and tries to do it himself. Ask in the morning he is off that way if he has something planned later on he can knock it out and go about his business. Like if he had planned on watching football all day then don't wait till he makes his snacks and kicks his feet up to relax to tell him. Hope this helps
