Here is the trick to putting off painting the bedrooms: Tell her that it is too nice to be indoors painting, and that you should do those kind of jobs in the winter when you are stuck in the house anyway.

Then, in the winter when she reminds you to paint the bedrooms, you point out that the fumes will be really bad and that you can't open the windows as it is too cold outside, and the paint will not cure properly if you were to open the windows.

The next summer you can try and start the sequence all over. Longest it worked for me was 3 years with my second wife.
