Re: House Work

Me:
All Laundry
Guest bathroom
Dust furniture/blinds
Make bed every day (unless he gets up after I'm gone)
All cooking
All Bills

DH:
Vaccuming
Garbage
Cleans the shower (b/c I hate doing it)
All Fish tank duties
Litterbox (but only b/c I'm preggo)

Both of us randomly:
Master bathroom
Floors
empty dishwasher

We hire someone to do all windows 2x year

eta: also, DH has no outside duties b/c we live in a condo

We never set up this schedule, its just kinda fallen into place this way. I swear DH loves vacumming so when hes doing that I usually pick up the duster or windex and start cleaning around.

Him do housework, yeah and you saw the pigs flying over right??? I do it all, I break my week up, Monday Big clean, bath, beds dust the whole nine yards.
Tuesdays I normally do laundry.
Wednesday, Im food shopping. Thurs just touch up.
Friday Do the bathroom again, Im a bit of a germ-a-phobe, so I clean, clean the bath a few times a week.

ETA: And I make dinner at least 5-6 nights a week, we may get takeout on a sunday. I do all the dishes and once again, he does none of it...He works thats "his share".



WOW! I wish I had your dedication!

Re: House Work

We didn't have to set a schedule or anything. Our personalities/likes kinda just determined what our duties will be. I cook and clean the kitchen 'cos that's what I enjoy. He does the rest of the apt. and laundry since he loves to do laundry especially ironing and he's a neat freak.

share house work??? Chat Icon Chat Icon




agreed. He does the 'manly' work - ie mow the lawn, put chemicals in the pool, bbqing......

I do all the 'girl' work Chat Icon - cooking, dishes, laundry, cleaning litter boxes, weeding, bills, dusting, straightening up in general, toilets, grocery shopping etc. etc. Pretty much everything except the three things listed above.

Somehow I also take out the trash (outside and to the curb), but he brings in the cans usually

He will help with vaccumming Chat Icon

Re: House Work

we break it up according to room. I'm in charge of the kitchen / living area, and he's in charge of the bedroom / bathroom.

And for cooking, we try to split the dishes and prep work... or if one comes home late, the first person cooks, and the 2nd person cleans....

DH does the trash, and I do the laundry Chat Icon
