Date 7: Sharing Responsibility and Working Together

10:57 AM

Preface: We just go married we have no children, and live in a tiny apartment, Both of us work Chase part time and me full time But he's going to school as well. We in my option dived the outside home chores pretty evenly everything I make which isn't much pays all of our bills. Everything Chase make we put in our tiny savings. A maters program isn't cheap so we are just trying to save up as much as possible for that. As far as the house hold chores go I'm going to be honestly with all of you I do most of them. Chase does dishes most of the time though which is nice. I grow up in a family where my dad expected to be served hand and foot and never did any household chores so Chase doing dishes is pretty awesome. But everything else I do which isn't too bad it's only the two of us and it's something we've discussed and if I ever feel like I'm caring to much of the burden it's something we will discuss again. He does well and I know the burden of school takes a lot so I feel we are about even on what we are contributing to our household. 



From The Book:  As you can probably guess this chapter what on sharing responsibilities. When considering responsibilities you have to remember ones outside the home as well as inside the home as well. It was important for us to come up with a household that worked for us its not about score keeping things don't always balance out. To the side is After Chase did the dishes one day when I got home from work late it made me so happy. One thing that was mentioned and that helps us is setting financial goals and keeping track of our finances. We are on a tight budget so keeping track of that and making sure both of us are on the same page financially is important  part to keep contention out of our relationship. 


DATE TIME: We watched YouTube videos together and had snacks I promise we will do something more exciting next week. My husband preceded to make me watch this video of a HAM going up a escalator twice. along with some equally stupidly funny videos along with Nutella rolls. Recipe here  they are the best thing on the planet.http://www.bakedbyanintrovert.com/nutella-cream-cheese-crescent-rolls/ They are the best thing in the world  and prove the existence of a higher being who loves us. We had fun and then cleaned up together we like out balance we have but this date taught us that we have to keep a open dialogue about finances so we can keep a budget and make sure to keep our financial goals we have set of A masters degree for Chase and to stay out of debt as much as possible.
