🛌 The Daily “Would You Rather”: The Capability Check-In 🧺

I am just curious… regarding household chores, how do you decide who does what when your energy levels fluctuate? 🤔

As a disabled entrepreneur managing chronic conditions, the standard “50/50 split” doesn’t always work in our house. Since I’m the one building the network marketing business from home, and my partner has their own focus, we don’t stand on ceremony.

We don’t have a roster; we have a reality check. It simply comes down to: Who is physically able to do it right now?

So, looking at it through the lens of ability and energy preservation:

Would You Rather:

A) Make the Bed 🛏️

* The Task: It requires standing, bending, reaching, and wrestling with sheets.

* The Reality: On a high-pain day, this is a mountain to climb. But if my partner is rushing out the door, can I manage a quick tidy up? Or do I leave it for them because my back says “no way”? 🚫

OR

B) Fold the Clothes 🧺

* The Task: A repetitive motion that requires patience and fine motor skills.

* The Reality: This is often my go-to because I can do it seated. I can conserve my energy (my “spoons”) for my MLM business calls or direct sales follow-ups while tackling the pile from the couch. 🛋️

The “Couple’s Strategy” 💡

In our home, we play to our abilities. If I’m having a flare-up, the bed is not happening unless my partner does it. If they are exhausted from their day, I might take the laundry because I can do it while resting my legs. It’s about teamwork and grace, not keeping score! 🤝

Which task is easier for you to manage?

Are you Team Bed (Quick burst of energy) or Team Laundry (Slow and steady seated work)?
