re: What do wives actually do?

My wife does a frick ton, tbh. More than me. Her job is less busy so she generally has more time to plan and coordinate things. She takes care of our finances, coordinates appointments for house repairs and house cleaning (I WFH so I meet with all of these people, pay them, inspect their work, etc), plans vacations, weekly meal plan, and we split daily chores pretty evenly. Only thing that I do exclusively is basically anything dealing with the outside of the house and/or in our yard.

She bitches as much as any wife, but I can't deny her of all of the work she puts in for our family.
