Anyone here cook dinner for their family and then clean up afterwards? Do you do this w/o resentment? My dh pretty much always cleans up after I cook, but occasionally if he has something else going on and I do it, I do it bitterly. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

It matters b/c it's not like lazy ass DH does nothing all day. He made the $$ so that she had the food to make dinner. Is tit that big of a deal if he occasionally doesn't clean up the kitchen? Get over it. [ Reply | More

I cook and clean up, but he works all day. I figure I have my down time during the day (when dc are at school) so I don't get resentful. [ Reply | More
