Now I do realize that as we age our parents do as well. I also expect that as a child I am to assist with care. What I don’t seem to get my siblings to fathom is that I have no assistance at home. As they call on their spouses for assistance, I am just standing here looking like some aberation or annomally.
My brother pointed out to me today (with admonishment) that his wife can work a 70 hour work week and they get other things done. However, last time I checked she did not come home and pay the bills and take care of the yard and…and…. They are lucky enough to share these duties. So when I tell him I don’t do extra things on a 70 hour work week, one would think he would grasp that there is nobody at all pitching in around my house. But who’s complaining?
