Am I the only one?

I have come to a conclusion that is possibly long overdue.  I am the odd ball of my friends.  This however is not always a bad thing.  I am most likely the only "old fashioned" one of us.  I am content being the "doer" of the house.  Granted I do my share of fussing about it being all on me.  Truth be known though, I wouldn't know how to act if things were split down the middle.  In my house I do the following: laundry, cleaning, cooking (although hubs will help with this) all things school related for the kids, actually anything related to the kids except for the one day of the week they have a "Daddy day". grocery shopping, and the prep work for the next day.  Also when the mower isn't messed up I do the yard work.  The last one is by choice, I don't like the way Hubs does it so instead of complaining I just handle that myself.

It works in my house, although not perfectly, but then again what does when your in a family.  We sit down to supper every night as a family.  The kids are sent to bed each night with hugs, kisses and I love yous.  Hubs and I are content.  We work well together.  I am happy with my life.  Others may see it at less than appealing; but in my little world it works.

I have often compared our family life to being a married single mom, given hubs profession.  Of the two of us, I am the only one that works "normal hours", meaning, I am home every night, weekend, and holiday.  I work your typical 9 to 5.  As much as it pains me to admit it, I am a creature of habit and do not do well when my nice little routine is altered.  I like knowing that when I get home from work, and picking up the kids I will start fixing supper, the kids will be entertaining themselves or in the kitchen with me.  Once supper is finished, it is bath time while I clean the kitchen.  After this then teeth are brushed, snuggles are given and kiddos are sent off to dream, while I prepare things for the day ahead. 

I am old fashioned, and I like it that way.
