Men Helping with Chores

My view with chores is very simple. Share some and divide others based on interest, or lack of it, ability and time, and then do it right.

So what falls in my exclusive domain,
I am the resident bhangi, mistiri, munshi and assassin of the house, cleaning bathrooms, unclogging toilets caused by kids over indulgence in wet wipes, and experiments of what they can flush, taking out trash and recycling, unclogging the sink dispenser yet again, changing light bulbs, ensuring service and repair of all appliances and cars, changing all filters, vacuum belts, giving the damn vacuum roller a hair cut (unsure why they insist to brush hair in carpeted areas), everything to do with yard, mulch, driveway, snow plowing, dealing with bugs in and out if the house, spiders inside, wasps and bees outside. Grilling outside, running the patio pit or anything else for outside, taxes, financial planning, credit history reviews, bank reconciling

Now let me see what are the things that begum does that I don’t also do …hmmm her and kids laundry, and brush the girl’s hair…and oh yes, shopping for kids clothes and supplies, and homework czar.

Cooking is 70-30 or 80-20, dishes are maybe 60-40. Cleaning the wood floors is 20-80, and same for the staircase.

Yeah, so there. I rock the casbah.

More or less the same en mi casa…except the kitchen and cooking is 100% my domain..and I would have it no other way
