I have never been very good at meal prepping.

In response to "4:30 A.M. Anyone?"

100% on summer time

Saturday was always our family day, Sunday was meal prep for the week. I made muffins for children's breakfast and snacks for after school because I went to work before they got up for school and they got home first in the afternoon. And I cut up vegetables for the week a head's meals. I don't miss those days at all.

This morning he offered to empty the dishwasher, great. I come back in the kitchen and all the dishes are on the counter. When I ask why, he said he didn't know where they went. I said, open the doors it's pretty obvious. I walk away before I yell. I come back later the dishes are taken care of but every cupboard door is wide open. GRRRRRR

, That is Exactly so! I cannot name One chore that I have given my husband or one that he has willingly offered to help with, that I have not had to go behind him to fix. It is like following a young child around to fix their chores. On the other hand...he is the sole caretaker of our four acre property, and I know that, yes...I could mow it like he does, but...there is so much more that he puts into it that I could not (edging, weedeating, etc), so I really cannot complain...Too much!

Husbands, what would we do without them, it's like having another child. Our husbands share similar characteristics, if I ask my husband to do something without a doubt, I discover I should have done it myself. Like I asked him to start the laundry, yup, he put it in the washer but never pushed start.

I'm as pale as a corpse and I live in the desert. It's too chilly to be outside for long periods of time.
