My bride has spoiled me rotten. I provide the household income and she tends
to the household chores. This summer she added cutting the lawn (used to be
my realm) to her tasks. She uses the non-powered reel mower as I've banned
her from the power mower...those blades are not forgiving and I like all her bits
and pieces intact. The tasks that she is not strong enough for I take care of
eventually though she never nags me to do anything.

She does:
Cooking
Cleaning
Shopping
Laundry
Bill Paying
Dishes
Gardening
Cuts the grass
Shovels snow often
Paints
All the stuff that I've forgotten to list

and she'ld hang the storm windows and screens if I let her (actually she has occasionally).

In general, she does it all, never complains and never nags. I don't know how
this arrangement evolved but she's spoiled me and I ain't complaining.

(Of course, if her MS kicks up....None of the above applies)

Happy Trails
