How do you and your FI/DH divide cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc?

    I do all of the laundry.  We split cooking probably very close to 50/50.  Housework is probably 80/20 in favor of me doing more.  It all works out though because realistically, I work like 35 hours per week and DH works about 50.

    Cooking - 99% me
    Cleaning -  probably about 75% me
    Laundry - 100% me
    Lawn/Snow - 95% him
    Gardens - 95% me

    He does lawn work and grills alot  of dinners in the summer. I would say the rest -- is about all me.

    He works is butt off doing hard manual labor so if he wants to sit and watch the ball game. He allowed to do that. :)

    Oh boy...it's a serious team effort!!  We both work full time and we are both in college right now taking 3 classes each, so life is nuts!!  I do 98% of the cooking, as he just doesn't have a knack for that! lol  I would say he tends to do more laundry than I do and he helps with the cleaning, except for the bathroom, so I do that solely.  Except for the cooking, we don't each have specific chores that we each do.  We both just do what needs done.

    I hate to say this, but he does most of everything.  I do more straightening up around the house, dusting when needed and sometimes laundry.  But he really does the majority of it.  I'm a lucky girl.

    I do the laundry and 95% of the cooking.  Cleaning is sometimes 50/50, sometimes all me, and on a rare occasion mostly him (he never does the bathroom), but that depends on our schedules.  I have made him want to have a clean house though and he gets irritated when it gets messy.  He takes care of the lawn (including dog mess!)

    Laundry is 100% me.  I won't let him touch it because he turns my socks blue.  I do all the vacuuming, dusting.  I clean the bathrooms, empty the litter box.  He cooks probably 90% of the time, and we share the dishes.

    We live in a townhouse, and the HOA takes care of the lawn and snow.  So neither one of us does any of that.  All though, it'd totally be his job if we had a different house with our own yard ;p
