Chore Wars

“Chore Wars” are a common problem for couples: 1) sharing housework 2) negotiating the schedule for chores 3) agreeing on standards that are acceptable to both partners.

It’s a problem that won’t go away. Bathtubs get grimy, dust bunnies multiply in corners, clutter accumulates everywhere – as surely as the sun will rise tomorrow.

It took us awhile to figure out a no hassle solution to our shared housework, and we’ve created a short video on it. Check it out – and then share your ideas for replacing the “Chore Wars” with peace on the homefront.
