I used to try to do house work like washing dishes and doing laundry after work. Now days, it's whenever I get around to it. But i'm also involved in community projects and we still go out on the weekends, so i'm not totally lazy. I quit obsessing about the house and now wait until the day before ppl are coming over to have a mad dash panicky house cleaning done in time. Mriluv cooks, and does dishes when i don't feel like it. He helps on mad dash house cleaning day by sweeping and cleaning the guest bath. I hired a yardman, which saved us many arguments. If your wife works full time, cut her some slack.

Like I said before, I don't usually bitch at her about it but I get irritated as frick sometimes when I see her sprawled out on the couch with her face in her phone while I'm washing the dishes, folding clothes, taking out the trash, etc...

You should have an emotional affair via Facebook messenger, Nancy.

Stop doing the dishes. Someone will want to eat soon enough. The next time you take the trash out, dont bring it back in, but put the trashcan in the middle of the driveway so she has to get out of the car and acknowledge the trashcan. Then at the very least, she brings the trashcan back into the garage. Stop washing her clothes and everybody elses. They are all grown ups, no reason for you to be doing anybodys laundry but your own.
