Subject: RE: Sitting At The Kitchen Table
Who does the washing up in our house? Whoever. We don't have many traditional roles.

My Dad used to brag that he helped mom make breakfast. Before mom went to bed at night she'd measure out the coffee and the water and plug the coffee maker in. All that had to be done in the morning was to push the button to turn the coffee maker on. That's what my dad did... That's all my dad did. When it came to housework, he believed in a division of labor. Mom did 99% of the work, and he did 1%.
