Dw and I are both RNs and work at the same place but in different departments. She works part time one to two 12 hour night shifts shifts a week another words she works 6 night shifts in a 28 day cycle. I work full time 13 12 hour night shifts plus 2 to 3 overtime shifts in a 28 day period. We have been arguing about who is pulling the most weight in job, parental and home duties. I suggested trading the amount of hours spent doing each other duties ,for awhile to see how the other person deals with it. We both think the other has it easy. here are each of us are doing right now.
Mine. All the outside ie: shoveling snow, lawn, landscaping , I have been doing all the mopping the floors, vacuming carpets and the bathrooms since she was preggo with the first because we were concerned with DW being possibly exposed to chemicals . I fold half the laundry and make sure it gets into the right drawers... both DS's are supposed to do theirs putting away ableit most of the time. i take all the garbage out . cooks meals once a week. When she is at work I shuttle the kids around. I also am a adult volunteer in the boy scouts and Litle league manager I play golf like once every 6 weeks. I work 35-57 hours a wek at my job.
Hers. She does all the laundry.. does the bills, all the food shopping and cooking 6 nights a week . She
does most of the displinaring of the kids, figures out schedules for them , She does volunteeer at the schools . Folds half the laundry , cleans the kitchen, gets the kids off to school. She is in in the PTA. She is the taxi driver of the DS's .
She works 12- 24 hours a week at work . and she deals with her PIA mother too which is non negotiable...lol She gors out with her sisters once or twice each month
We are wondering how this will turn out. any bets out there...lol?
