The house......oh yes, we don't discuss that one either. I pretty much do all of the cooking and most of the cleaning. Whats even more fun is I do all the running around we both work full time, but I take care of everything, kids lessons, sports, bills, hell I even schedule her dr's appts. Now interestingly my wife thinks she does all of it, but we just let her keep on thinking that, except for one of my younger kids who is always telling her he shouldn't pick up his things because she doesn't pick up hers. You know it really did take some time figure it all out and believe me I went through phases when I was ready to walk I didn't because she is my soul-mate, we may go to battle at home but when the chips are down her loyalty is right next to me. When things are good she is funny, creative, caring and would do anything for anyone. It is sad when I think about what happens to her, and I have to remember it is not a choice she has made. I too look at my kids and know I am not wasting my life. I do have things that I do just for myself, I am into sports and have buddies that I go out with and I actually go on vacation with just a couple of my friends once a year, and believe it or not I can't wait to get home. My wife and I have talked about this and we are both from the old school that when we got married it was a life long committment, for better or worse. Sometimes the worst lasts longer than the better but we keep on truckin. Hang in there.
