Shopping is necessary so yes, it counts as housework.
And yardwork doesn't need doing every day - so on the day the lawn needs mowing, I don't expect my husband to help inside the house, but he can share the cooking, cleaning, child duties every other day. Not that he does 50/50 though lol.

BluesBud BluesBud: novachick novachick: BluesBud BluesBud: Brenda Brenda: Or just hires a housekeeper  Gee it's nice to have money! What's that like BTW? (remember single man talking but....) It seems to me a marriage (with or without kids) would work better if the load is shared. It might even bond the two of you better if these things are done together. Not in my book. Ya need to just stay the out of my way. If I ask you to do something you sure as hell better do it. Well believe it or not, I even have an answer to that one. If the time has come to co-habituate, You should know each others quirks well enough to know when to get out of each others way. If yo have a better way of cleaning the bathroom, Hey it's all yours. If I am better in the kitchen, then thats my domain. Communicate and work it out. All in all things work out better if you just coordinate. OK now I just gotta know. Why the F@*k am I still single?
BB...it will happen for ya bro!! just when you least expect it.
**on a side note...why dont you do a blues hour on CKA radio, in particular Canadian blues....OH i have a great tape (yes tape) from an australian blues band that kicks!!!:**

Every time you see a guy doing so much housework is when he's guilty of something.
It's like this:
* Washing dishes = "Sorry for shouting at you last night at the dinner table"
* Vaccuming = "I had a headache last night and I know you wanted me so bad"
* Doing the yard work / Shoveling the snow = "Your mother, she's the one who started it in the first place..."
* All of the above choirs = "The neighbor's wife asked for help and I went to her place and I got played"

There's men's jobs and there's women's jobs AND making the beds, cleaning the toilets, cooking super is something I am NOT interested in doing...
On the other side of the coin, I do not expect my wife to shovel the snow in the driveway, mow the grass in the summer, rake the leaves in the fall & spring... NOR does she paint the bedrooms, change oil & spark plugs in the vehicles or fix the roof...
I call men who do women's work - SISSIES !!!!!

When I hear guys saying how much they help around the house, I like to brag up my sister a little bit. She finally kicked her alcoholic husband out, they ran a mixed farm together. This would be a typical fall harvest day for her.
Get 2 teenage kids on the bus at 7:30 in the morning. Then it would be off too the pig barn to feed the pigs, she could pack 4 / 5 gal pales of chop at the same time and then 2 / 5 gal pales of water, about 10 trips from the faucet. Next she’d be off to the chicken coop with feed and water, she could do that in 2 trips. And then gather the eggs for the day and take them back to the house. And no she wasn’t one of these big boned Alberta girls that Mario likes.
At this time it was either wash up the eggs and have them ready to sell or go jump in the truck and go check the cows. If there were none out and didn’t have to fix any fence, then that’s when she would come back and cook herself some breakfast. After breakfast she’d jump in the fuel truck and go fuel up the combine and grease it up and shake out the air filters. From there it was over to the baler to do the same thing and check that there was lots of twine so her 13 year old boy could start baling once he got home from school.
Then depending on how much dew there was the night before, she had a like bit of time to maybe run into town to get some groceries, parts, maybe run into the bank to tell the banker how good the crop was and then it was time to head home and unload the truck that she parked at midnight when she stopped combining the night before.
After that was done she’d head back to the house to make a lunch to take out to the combine, throw a load of clothes into the washer so all her daughter had to do when she got home from school was put it in the dryer, and maybe put together a casserole for the girl to put in the oven later for supper. Next it was go jump into the grain truck and drive out to the combine and start harvesting for the next 8/10/12 hours depending on the forecast.
The kids would come home after school, the boy would jump on the dirt bike and head out to the baler and bale for 2 or 3 hours. The girl, using the little red wagon would feed the pigs and chickens. When the grain truck was full, some where around supper time, she would bring it in to unload, the boy jumped on the bike and mom and the 2 kids would have a sit down supper together and discuss how their days had gone.
After supper it was back out to the baler for the boy and another couple hours baling, my sister would unload the truck head out to combine for who knows how many more hours that night. When she called it a day, she’d come in whip up a batch of cookies for the kids lunches, have a shower and go to bed.
Once her son was old enough to operate all the farm equipment she found herself a job at a fiberglass insulation factory running the batch plant and unloading railcars working 12 hour days, 3 days 1 week, 4 days the next. That job gave her lots of time in the summer to process up to 100 or more chickens a week by hand, and personally deliver them to her regular customers.
I’m pretty proud of my sister. Anybody got a wife like that ?
