    Ugh.  Me 90, him 10%.  He takes trash and recyling out but forgets once a week.  I'm trying to learn him a new trick though- putting his own dishes in the dishwasher.

    it depends what you consider chores. Dh does all the finance stuff, and the dishes (he use to do the laundry... the operative words there being use to) I do everything else.

    of course, we also have a maids service come in twice a month, which means I'm not scrubbing toilets. (It is one of the perks of working full time) ?So I would say 60% me 40% dh

    ?

    Honestly it feels like ME =100%. But I know it's not true. He is supposed to take out the garbage although I have to remind him every Monday to do so and then of course I'm actually the one that has to take it out of the garbage can inside and put it outside (so it really defeats the purpose of him doing it at all). He also does do the snow removal, that of course is only because he won't teach me how to use the tractor.

    eh, I'd guess we are me = 60%, DH = 40% once you factor inside/oustide crap together.

    LOL - me too.

    I do about 95%, though I'm sure he'd disagree. I do all cooking, cleaning, most of the trash removal, dog poop, all diaper changes, etc. Every once in a while he'll put *some* of the dinner dishes in the dishwasher. He handles the bills (though I don't really consider that a chore, because your hands don't get dirty!) and car maintenance (taking them for oil changes).

    I would say 50%/50%.  He does alot of the dirty/hard stuff (mow the lawn, rake, shovel snow, car repairs, take out trash, etc.)  I do more of the house cleaning, etc.

    Right now me 100% since he's deployed.  It's one of the reasons I'm getting a cleaning service for Christmas. 

     When he is home, it varies week to week, but overall I'd say 50-50. He's great about helping when he's home, especially when I'm busy with school, my clinical practicum stuff and DS.

    80/20 probably. He tries a lot harder to help on the weekends so I get a little bit of a break.

    It used to be about 60% me and 40% before the baby and now 90% me and 10% him because he works full time and I only work part time so he thinks it's part of the package.  I still get ripped off because I work part time and I'm a full time mom so I'm doing more chores than when we both worked the same amount.  No fair--raising kids is harder than being at work...no wonder I love working away from home.

    LoveEeyore - if you're ever able to teach him how to put his dishes in the dishwasher, please page me.  I'd like to learn that trick!

    Me 90%, DH 10%

    But when he's done with his 10% (cleans bathroom and does laundry 1x a week), I have to go back into the bathroom and "girl" clean it.  You know what I mean?  He cleans the tub, the sink & the toilet.  I have to clean the shower glass door, the mirror, the floor, the soapdish, etc.   Stuff that never occurs to him need cleaning.

    Oh- my favorite is when he "cleaned" the apartment when I was away for a weekend.  I came home and found cleaning supplies and dirty rags all around the place.  He just left them after using the stuff- kind of like his dishes. 

    Girl clean is SO different than guy clean!

    uhhhhhhh yeah i'd say me 95% and him 5%...He takes out the trash once a week, but doesn't even empty the fricken onein the kitchen...I do it EVERY time....

    For the past week, he's been cooking though.  That will be short lived though, it will get old fast.  It always does.

    Nah i'm not bitter lol.
