They are just like my sister and brother-in-law.

Now, that’s how a marriage should work.

I agree. Unfortunately, I end up doing it all. That’s the way it worked in my husband’s family, so he’s not used to splitting responsibilities at home. When I worked, it was hard, but now that I’m at home full-time, I’m more okay with it (although I would appreciate some help).

Cleaning dishes is easier than cooking.

My late husband and I had the same arrangement when we would go camping. I would cook while he sat back and rested and then he would do the clean up while I sat back and rested. Worked out great. Space was small also, so we didn’t get in each other’s way.
