Unusual Responsibility

Its strange really, for most of my life I've been either part of a couple where we both work or not working. Suddenly I find myself as the partner that is working when the other one isn't.
Its odd, unusual but ultimately not so bad.Business WomanAnd I get to spend ages on the phone chatting to people under the pretext of working. Not such a bad life really.

As I've said before though, the difference here is that Robin is so supportive and shares the responsibility of family life really well. Ok so he doesn't do housework but as he said the other day, he doesn't do it at home either. As I hate it too perhaps a maid might be a good idea, that or get the children to do more. No point in having them and not utilizing them!

 Dusting  Laundry  Cleaning The Toilet Still at least I can get him to wash up occasionally and he does wash up when I ask nicely.

Its school sports day today and the girls are really keen for me to go this afternoon. 
I  would have weakened and agreed to go, but then the topic of the parents race came upTrack
 and they are insistent that if I go I will have to race, at which point I refused point blank. If you'd seen me you would understand, anyone less likely to run a race you haven't met!
  

Oh well, back to work I guess.
