Do you need a break? From what?

I like cooking and I have always made dinner for my family. I don’t mind because usually I’m hungry too and I want something to eat, but every once in a while I wish someone would say, ‘I’ll cook tonight.’

Usually, if I don’t want to cook, I order dinner for everyone. It would be nice if I didn’t have to do that either, I don’t even want to begin to calculate how much I spend on food. So it would also be nice if just once someone says, ‘I’ll buy dinner.’

Now to the cleaning. I always do that as well.

Now, I need to add here, my oldest son will wash the dishes, take out the trash and he will help with the laundry folding towels and such. My middle son has done his own laundry since he was twelve and I just recently told my youngest that he needs to do his own laundry. They also all clean their own rooms. There is not much cleaning I have to do, but I wish once, just once one of the three would just do it for me because they know I have a lot to handle, but they don’t.

I’ll keep waiting maybe they will one day…
