I'm sick of being THE man!!!

For the most part DH and I have an "understanding" of what our household duties are. Some are his (putting the trash at the curb, all landscaping duties, his bathroom :eek: and his office), some are mine (food and household goods shopping, meal planning, cleaning my bathroom, getting the kids out of the house before 7am 3 days/wk and organization of our lives :lmao:), the rest are shared pretty equally. My only complaint is that for me to get DH to do a lot of the shared duties plus his bathroom, he needs a lot of reminding (he'll insist otherwise :rotfl2:). I'd shudder to think what the cat box would look like if I didn't do it or remind him that it was time :sick:.

As far as vomit goes, I can handle our ODS's vomit if DH isn't around (with the exception of when I was pg with #2, then forget it) but nobody else's! DH is excellent with puke and has cleaned mine up on several occasions without batting an eyelash :worship:.
 
You rock, Marius! There is a special place in heaven for parents who clean vomit while those of us with weak stomachs cower in the background. We are 16 years into the parenthood gig, and I STILL can deal with this part of it! :rotfl:

Bugs, dead rodents, trash, lawn care, rain gutters, car maintenance, dealing with scary noises, home repair, toting the heavy stuff... Hmm, I think I need to take a moment to go thank my DH today. :lovestruc

Hope this week is better for you!
 
I have to kill all the bugs at our house. But I guess it is a good trade off. One time I was severly ill with food poison and wound up in the hospital. To make the story short... my wife had to repaint walls in the house becuase of me.
As a side note. I usually chase her around the house with the dead bug after I kill it. After 22 years of marriage you got to have some fun.
 

I am currently a "single" mom while DH is in Iraq... but I tell you, when he comes back I am happy to give him back his old jobs... LOL. Cleaning the backyard from the dogs and mowing it - UGH. Pure torture... I think I have a lot more respect for him now!
 
OP, I'm sure your dw is thankful. Right? My boys are 11 and 14yrs now and I can only recall them barfing 4 times in there lives thank goodness my dh was home for the first 3:worship:. The last time about 2 years ago it was late at night and no way could it wait until my DH got home. I had to go on the internet to find instructions to operate the shampoo feature of our rainbow vaccume cleaner.:lmao: I had to carry a big cup as I cleaned because I almost lost it many times.

Thank the Lord for my DH and all he has and can and will do for us.:worship:
