Luckiness

[klwilliams]

I used to buy food at the grocery store, sometimes even cook it, and clean up the dishes and put things away. I used to wash my clothes and fold them. I used to bring in my newspaper in the mornings on weekends. Now...I don't. My husband does all that. He does it much better than I used to do. I feel like the stereotypical 1950's businessman. I go into the City (San Francisco) every day for work and come home to a hot supper. I suppose I should feel a lot more guilt, but I'm so happy to have him here when I get home. He's so wonderful.

(Barry wants me to add, so are the boys.)

There's nothing like a couple of purring furries to round the picture of Home. :-)

Why feel guilt? As long as he's volunteering to do it -- then its something he enjoys or is willing to do because it makes *you* happy.

So Enjoy. And figure out something to spoil him with. That's the fun part of marriage.

Why feel guilty? There's nothing inherently wrong with complementary roles -- there's only a problem when people are arbitrarily locked into roles that don't suit them or make them happy.

I think we are all in agreement that it is just wonderful to see you both so happy! Nobody cares about traditional gender rolls in our community anyway.

As long as he doesn't start handing you a pipe and slippers!
