Resposibility Chart
So I got into a small argument with my wife the other day because she thinks I'm not responsible enough around the house! I was shocked to hear it because secretly for a long time I've been feeling the same way about her! Well we created a chart that divides up certain responsibilities. If one of us is failing to follow the responsibilities listed on the chart the other can penalize the perpetrator in some way. So far as I expected Heather has been failing miserably and I have performed all responsibilities flawlessly. I think she still thinks I'm not being responsible enough however. It's like she has glasses on that can only see me in out of focus.

Having lived with Paul, I find it unbelievable that he would ever shirk important household duties. That was when Paul was in his early 20's, however, and he was probably much more responsible at that time. I used to have to beg him to stop doing my dishes, so I could feel like I was pulling my weight!
You obviously remember very little about when we all lived together. Hmmmm I wonder why?
I think you're making it way too complicated. Just help the woman around the house more.....
Maybe I should help you shut your big fat mouth more! Hee Hee Hee
