Women (Hard life)
Well guys, I finally called it a day, work wise around two years ago.
Might have to go back to it
Of late been doing some of the chores the wife used to do
Who on earth Would swap places with them
Washing.
ironing.
cleaning.
bathroom.
kitchen.
shopping.
gardening.
decorating.
painting.
Hoovering.
cooking. + preparation
cars to clean.
grass to mow.
privat to cut.
windows to clean.
The list is endless.....................................
All that, then years ago when kids where around It MUST have been hard.
After all that, we still want em to look there very best, scrub up nice, Thursday,friday and Saturday nights
To socialise with others.
Then there's things we don't mention, That time of the month, pregnancy,body change, etc.etc.
WOW..............
Give me a Dogs life, on my return. Just lay in front of the fire, get tickled every now and again, only took for walks in dry weather....
Hanging my Bra's up Now.......Rant over

Surprised no requests for a wife swap yet!! Not from me, that all sounds far too tidy and not sure I could take that level of tidiness!

No Swapping, at this stage. Unless
I have had her 45 years...
Just thought I had her trained up, passed her apprenticeship.( As a housewife). When Covid hit, then I quit my job.
She has had my best years, she will have my worse. ( we at that age now, every day could be our last).

Get used to it. I don’t get even one day off for good behaviour plus I have three needy kids. The only thing on your list I don’t do is the ironing. Apparently I make a lousy job of it, so you know what to do if you want rid of it and anything else.
