Not many posts for the New Year, so I'll start..... I'm not the best domestic type but we've worked things out to be fairly equal. I made breakfast this morning, only because he asked. He made dinner last night. I'm doing a load of laundry only because I need a pair of jeans to wear today.
We are happy! We have fun, we get one day off a week together and we try to do atleast one thing for each other like go for a walk on the beach. Even if its only for a little while. Its good...
Now how about you? There are a lot of people in this tribe but no posts??
Just say one thing nice about your partner ok?

We too are happy and having fun.

Re: Hello all
Wed, January 17, 2007 - 5:50 AMYeah, it's not fun.
At first, when I was really bummed, he dug a garden for me in the winter and I planted some seeds so that in the spring I would have something to look forward to, it was the best thing, I used to get out of bed just to see what had sprouted and each day he'd expect a report. -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.

Thu, January 18, 2007 - 9:47 AMawww, that is very sweet, you'll need to do that again and now I hope you'll be able to participate more...
Karl, thats a good one I'm not sure for us, sometimes I'm shocked at his reaction to something. Just when I think I knew him perfectly, he'll change his mind on something..

Re: Hello all
Thu, February 1, 2007 - 11:00 AMHmm, we trade off. I'll do the dishes and he'll cook for a week, then he'll do the dishes and I cook. Other chores get done as needed by whomever is least lazy. :-)
One nice thing?
He sets at night, then wakes up and turns off, my alarm every morning so I can roll over and take my temp (FAM) even though he doesn't have to get up for another hour. -

Thu, February 1, 2007 - 11:56 AMEva that is very nice of him. I should try the trade off thing, I may like that! I do dishes faster but I like cooking and making the mess more : )
