A woman's work

Another day off for D, due to some team laziness/skiving at work where we divvied up the three working days between Chrimbo and New Year between us for maximum time off. D will end up doing most of it (He was in all day yesterday and will be tomorrow for half a day) but that's only fair considering he's the only full-time member of staff.

What's that got to do with a woman's work unless D has undergone a sex change though?

Well, D is quite happily sitting in his slob clothes (Blues bottoms if you must know. That's Blues as in operating theatre scrubs.) on the sofa, tapping away at a meaningless blog entry while looking out of the window and watching C wash the car.

The family car is C's so it's only fair really that she cleans it don't you think? Not that you should believe D or A would have any opportunity to wash the car mind. That has nothing to do with D or A's willingness to wash the car (Actually, it does for D) but rather C's willingness to let them.

She is a perfertionist. Whether it's washing the car, decorating the home, painting a wall, preparing for surgery at work, washing up, wrapping presents, whatever....C has a motto that runs, 'If it's worth doing a job then it's worth doing it properly'.

Since D and A tend not to have the same perfectionist tendencies (In fact they're both quite slapdash in their approach) they tend not to be allowed to partake in some area's. Not that C is totally anal about it of course, just that she'd rather get on and do things herself. Independent woman see.
