Yep! I must admit that we have always worked well together on household chores. When we were married back in those olden days of 1972 we both worked.

I was a young policeman and my wife managed a clothing store. So we both get tired from work and it is not fair to expect one person to do all the work. My wife is Dutch and likes a clean house ( my young adults have NONE of my wife's cleaning genes) and things in there place.

NOw even though I am retired I still do the shopping, vacuum, dust and clean, empty the dish washer, make meals when she works. (Now part time). It leads to a happier and more relaxed environment at home and shows we appreciate each other.

I also do washing if required. I don't iron. I also pay the bills and look gorgeous all the time!

We do have a sort of system My husband does not know how to boil water so I am the cook. I enjoy it so it is not so terrible. I keep the kitchen clean, load the dishwasher and do all the food shopping.

Food and kitchen is my territory. For some crazy reason my husband likes to do the laundry. He says it relaxes him.

I can't remember the last time I did laundry. I vacuum and dust while he mops floors. If things break or need repair my husband keeps things working.

He is a retired carpenter so he is good at repairing things in our home. He used to do all the yard work. Mowing and watering.

Just last year we had our yard landscaped and in ground sprinklers put it. I told him since he was the last one on the block doing his own lawn care it was about time we "did like the Jones" and hired a gardener to mow once a week, trim shrubs and fertilize when needed. He fought me but now he has one big chore off his hands and the yard look really nice.

I was never one to get in the dirt and garden. I have good ideas but frankly I am too lazy to dig and plant. I told the landscaping guy what I wanted done and he planted.

I like plants that come back every year so plant once and it is done. I live in an area where the yards are pretty small so I am not talking a big expense. So to make a long story short, yes we share the chores.It has worked for over 44 years so why change now?

After 33 years.......... yes! I do all the electrical/mechanical/technical work, along with all the cooking, and she handles everything else. So far, so good..

Yes as long as he does not tell me how to cook LOL he loves to help but likes to boss me around a little in the kitchen. He does laundry and helps change the sheets and he will sweep and mop too he just hates to take out the garbage for some silly reason .

Best Friend.. My wife and I are truly best friends. I had my own business when we meet, and she began working along side me, what a blessing! We were meant for each other.

Since getting married my bride has been stricken with kidney failure. This is a hard pill to swallow, how someone so special should go through this pain. I know the Lord has a plan for her, and so does she.To hear her say " live or die I win ", to die Heaven and to live be here with me.

We spend ALL our time together and I love it ALL. Before her illness we worked together for 9yrs. Those were very special years and I would not trade them, or her for anything... Sources: MY HEART .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
