Have you a couch potatoe

[Bobbisox]

or do you share the chores evenly?
who do you think is the stronger one in the relationship?
who makes the financial decisions in your house
and who is the hot head?

My answers are...yes everything is shared, but since we retired, Mr B, does all the cooking, his choice
I am the stronger between us, I deal with stuff that comes our way
I make most of the financial decisions, but we have always had a joint account anyway

and , Yesssssss, I am the bloody hot-head too, Mr B is so laid back and quiet, he's almost horizontal!!!

lol......Bobbi

we tend share the chores, I tend to deal with the financial stuff, neither of us are hot heads, we are both pretty chilled out. it works for us.

Hi all!

Hmm, I would have to say I am the couch potato in our hiuse, my fella does all the cookng and most of the cleaning (although that is not a big task now we have the cleaner!)

Financial decisions would be both of us pretty much, although he does earn far more then I do he is very much of the whats mine is yours and everything is shared really!

[ummmm]

I'm getting married in Vegas....what is the weather like there?

Hi bobbi - busy morning - just getting a chance to eat now and answer your Qs -
We share chores
We are both strong at different times usually when one is the other isnt
We have joint account - I tend to plant ideas and he does the rest
I'm prob more hot headed than he is

[Bobbisox]

too hot for a Santa outfit ummm.lol
I believe it's very hot and dry, what a romantic fella you have there!

[ummmm]

lol....I wouldn't call him romantic. He's just lucky I have a sense of humour...!!

Hiya Joy - I do most of the chores around the house and cut the lawn etc etc - Gel does all the DIY - but he does cook sometimes for me - he can turn his hand to most things and is very laid back just like your Mr. Joy
but even though most men can do housework, I don't think attention to detail is on their must do list.

I am running 2 homes at the moment, I am sooooo knackered.

[Bobbisox]

well hellllloooo Den, good to see you up there, it has to be very hard looking after your Mum and Dad, doing your own stuff too, you must try and take some 'me' time pet, you wont be much cop to anyone if you take ill with exertion will ya?????
you take good care

Joy

[Bobbisox]

hey peri me Oirish pal,,,,waves

[DEN53]

I know your right Joy, but its easier said than done - today I am at home catching up on paperwork, phone calls etc but that gets interrupted with my Mum phoning me, crying and telling me my Dad keeps shouting at her, he is being a right pig. I know he is stressed with the situation, but shouting at her isn't helping. Neither is the bloody social works I got involved with, they are a pain in the ar$e. Not an ounce of common sense, if its not written in the text book, they are lost.

I am quite a strong person who can cope with most situations,and have been tested many times throughout my life, but at this present time can feel myself falling apart at the seams. I am living on paracetamol to take the tension away in my neck (that an chocolate !!) .

Never mind, I know there are people far worse off than me, so I should stop moaning.

[ummmm]

Moaning's good. We all need to get things off our chests.

[DEN53]

Thanks ummmm, I just always feel guilty after I have had the moan. {:o(

[Bobbisox]

no DEN, you do need to give out, it has to be sooo hard for you
