No
surprise
there.
If
any
of
our
guys
had
to
do
what
we
did
in
one
day,
they
would
collapse.
They
might
finally
understand
what
it's
like.

Same
here.
My
ex
was
SUCH
a
slob
and
we'd
make
a
chore
list
but
he'd
only
follow
it
for
a
few
days
then
conveniently
'forget'
about
it.
Luckily my current husband is really neat anyway. He also does the dishes, vacuuming and laundry. He's the best.
Christie 19th May
This
doesn't
surprise
me
at
all.
My
ex-husband
was
a
total
slob.
It
was
easier
&
less
stressful
if
he
kept
the
baby
entertained
while
I
did
the
house
work.

but here lately have found myself away from home and had to tell the hubby he HAS to to it.
He stepped up and did such a great job this week- helping our 10 yo build a working "volcano", helping her organize for a mini-society market day.
Used a different approach than I would have, but excellent job nonetheless.
I have been depriving the kids and my husband all these years by assuming I should be the one to handle these things!
Maybe we are part of the problem ourselves, by thinking it all has to be done our way?
Also, I do not service our vehicles, fix the furnace, unclog the toilet or mow the lawn. Are typically "guy" chores being taken into consideration?
I consider my spouse and I to be a team.
We each do what we are good at or are comfortable doing.
