attitude has a great deal to do with it--chores are chores and if i finish mine early i'll help her with her stuff and vice versa--that way we both get done with the stuff sooner--we each have areas in which we are sort of specialists--i handle all the horses/toys/machinery/household systems, etc. and she handles all the tech/IT stuff for us (we've got four seperate computer systems and all the ancillary hardware that goes with them)--we try and share our knowledge with one another so that we each have a better understanding/working knowledge of things in the event we're on our lonesome and have to act
works well for us--we work to understand each other's passions and engage in them to please/share with one another--just makes things a hell of a lot more fun
My wife and I have never had an argument, or even a serious discussion, about household chores.
Except for paying the bills, I don't think we have either.
DH declared himself the dish wench when we got this apartment so that's his job. He also takes out the trash. I'm the laundry wench. Everything else is a mutual effort.
DS likes helping so he ends up doing quite a bit because he just takes over.
Do you have a special outfit for this? You totally need one!

You overestimate my desire to get dressed ...
LMAO, I'm so stealing this line!
Steal away!
I'm a SAHM. PJs are perfectly adequate attire. Most days, I don't get dressed. The most I ever have to do is swap out my PJ shorts for PJ pants and grab a sweater if DS wants to go outside. Very casual home here!

I don't do corsets or dresses.
Then I regret to inform you that you cannot be a wench.

Maybe a laundress instead?

I'm a rebellious wench.
Speaking of medieval - We're doing a medieval theme for DS' birthday. I so need to find stocks so I can put miscreants in them. It would keep FIL out of my hair.
