Sounds like she best be getting off her damn ass and do something! And don't use she works as an excuse... I work avg of 50 hrs a week, will be up to 60/70 when it's warmer out, and my job is NOT easy, it is physically damaging to a body. No woman lasts doing what I do, and throw 3 kids into the mix, a husband who works 2nd/3rd shift.....I do it all, our house is probably more clean than the average 'homemaker' and I bring a check home. I don't cook full course meals as often because either I work pretty late or some nights I am that worn out and the kids can microwave, spread some PBJ, or toss in a pizza, etc... But yea I get the doing it all, and how it wears one out... for a woman not to pick up and help in is pretty shitty! Simple stopping at the grocery, or doing a few loads of laundry seems easy right?
