I am lucky too, my hubby has been out on workmans comp for almost a year due to his back and I told him he has to do the house work and I only have to do the stuff that is too hard for him.

Rose, I feel your pain. DH is convinced that he is an invited guest here and that this is the Holiday Inn.

I told my DH that he better hope he goes first as if it's me, he's going to be in big trouble! He'd have to learn to pick up after himself, run the appliances etc. My DS on the other hand will clean up the house for his wife and he does a lot of the cooking. I think it's because my MIL always did everything for him and I made my son learn how to do his own stuff.

I took 10 big Rubbermaid bins to Goodwill in the past 2 days. I have another load of kids books to go tomorrow. I have someone coming to look at fleece. My twin sized work table that is waist high is piled with fleece stacked nearly 5.5 feet tall. I was thinking $2.50 a yard for this good, heavy fleece. I paid $7-$10/yard. What do you think?
