[quote=Anonymous]Sahm: spend 30-60m cleaning during the day. I stay on top of finances and bills. I do 99% of cooking. But we eat out frequently when life gets crazy. I keep track of all projects and keep them moving forward from a planning perspective. I preschool co-op once/month. Do outdoor time, crafts, homework with kids. Take them to dance class. Some minor gardening. Would do more if that but toddler (and specific road location) doesn’t mix with letting me do landscaping. Sometimes tons of administrative/random stuff. All kids clothing updates.

Dh: earns all money. Does 0-2 small chores per day. Does almost all yard work. Stays on top of moving the big trash cans. Assists with cleanup if it gets crazy esp in Saturdays. As far as the projects that i track/manage, he’s the muscle doing he actual work—sometimes also moving things forward by just jumping in and doing stuff.

Equal bedtime effort, equal parenting (when he is here, obvs I do more bc I’m home more), equal car rides bc he drops off and I pick up.[/quote]
