We just got back from a 2.5 week Christmas adventure that took us all the way to Richmond, VA. More on that later as it will be a longer entry and I'm still organizing photos.
Anyway.
One day in Virginia, we were getting ready and Stewart mentioned that for the month of January, he wanted us to switch chores. We have a pretty clear division of labor in our house that works well for us so it's easy for us to trade. My chores/duties are: grocery shopping, preparing meals (except weekend breakfasts), laundry (sorting, washing, & folding), emptying the dishwasher, and generally keeping the house tidy. Stewart's are: vacuuming, dusting, washing the dishes, taking out the trash/recycling, and yardwork.
Today was Day 1. We had no food in our house and it was actually a relief for me that I don't have to come up with meals for the week or drive all the way to the grocery store to buy food. I did help put the groceries away because he was on his lunch break and needed to get back to work. We had some burned out lightbulbs around the house that needed to be replaced. FYI - I'm terrified of changing lightbulbs because I think they'll break in my hand. I can't remember the last time I did this .... probably close to 10 years ago. I changed two and they didn't break!
I'm not sure what's for dinner but lunch was hummus, crackers, and grapes. None of which I had to get out and put on the table! I may end up spoiled by the end of the month!
