We both work full time and I am supposed to be at work about 6:45 AM, but since dh takes the kids to day care, I have to stick around the house until 6 to wake them up and get them in the shower/dressed/fed (because he doesn't handle that very well) until I can HOPEFULLY leave for work at about 6:25 - which means I get there about 7.

Luckily, I have someone come clean the house every other week because I just can't keep up. Don't get home til about 5 PM after picking up all the kiddos, etc.

Me:
* all laundry (if dh needs something clean, he'll wash just that thing )
* pay all bills & mortgage
* schedule all doctor's appointments and take kids (even have to schedule
dh appointments cuz he won't do it)
* make dinner 5 nights/week
* all grocery shopping
* take out trash - although he usually manages to put the can out once a
week on trash day
* we share dishwasher responsibilities
* intermittent cleaning between maid visits

Him:
* fixes things, although typically quits in the middle and moves to something
else
* does dishes when I cook
* takes kids to school in the morning
* pays the neighbor kid to mow the lawn
* says he's going to take out the trash, but then manages to get out of it
because I have to do it when you can't close the lid anymore!

It's lovely
