When it comes writing I have a few of struggles that one day I wish I could improve…

(insert whatever – pay the power bill, buy milk, take something out for dinner). This phrase is a huge trigger for me because the person asking knows they didn’t do it or they wouldn’t be asking. I just don’t understand why they can’t just come out and ask if I did whatever they are inquiring about. To use the ‘we’ seems condescending to me, almost superior in a…
