The Question of Cost

We're having the house touched up and repaired and the contractor's job is almost done. I'll be going to check the progress in a wee bit. We have a strange way of communicating, hubby & I. Our preferred communication channels seem to be sms & telephone calls. And decision making is also made by phone. Maybe I should look at it positively. These channels are fast & efficient. We don't waste much time using them. Disadvantages: we mince our words and have no time for deliberations.

How to improve on my part? Increase my communication skills. And appreciate hubby more. That's what he wishes. And I do love and appreciate him, very much.
