Jan. 26th
46 days.
The boys are back! As I am making coffee in the morning for my future wife I also make the lunches for the boys at 6am. I get a kick out of making them. I just know what the boys like. Iceman, Ethan, loves spicy mustard on his sandwich. Destroyer, Dillon, loves yellow mustard. The Bottomless Pit, Dustin, eats everything. Dustin, being 17 years old, leaves for school at 7 am so I make his first. Cassie and I started giving Dustin money for lunch but we found that giving him a lunch equals more food for him. So I make his lunch, plus he gets two sandwiches. :)
Responsibilities plays a major role in our house. The phase "Jack of All Trades" is fine but you become a master at nothing. Cassie and I did not sit down and assign each other duties but we were able to figure out who does the best at certain duties. For instance, i make coffee majority of the time, make the lunches, laundry, and keeping my side of the closet clean. Cassie cleans the house, cooks majority of the time, and keeps her side of the closet clean. We have trade offs, such as, doing the dishes, taking out the trash and making the bed.
Would it be fair to expect one person to do it all? I do not think so. Cassie and I both would go nuts! I am extremely delighted that we have figured each other out and that we determined who is best at what.
