I haven't seen this comic before - what is it?
If schedule is disrupted, depending upon what needs to get done, it just gets done by the other person, hopefully - my husband is VERY willing and will adapt. I am the same.
.... unless it involves power tools or bugs...

When DH was travelling for work everything got flip ped. He was away for between 14-22 days at a time so that meant I had to do a lot of the chores I wasn't used to doing, some of which I had never done before (snow blowing, mowing the lawn, etc). We did that for 3 years and I'm SUPER happy it's over. He's now at a job that requires ZERO travelling so our routine is back on track. Taking out the garbage and all those other yucky jobs are now all his. lol

It's called Sherman's Lagoon and has been running for several years weekly in the Toronto Star.
@bargain_hunter_lola : I think fl*pp is the name of a flyer website that's been blocked because it's viewed as a competitor.
In answer to the question, if I don't do it, it doesn't get done at all. With LO, I think I've just signed up for 18 years of late nights. (yawn! )

Another perfectly timed question, OP.
Today is the day for me. It’s work. I’m at a big shindig and I was responsible for X, Y, and Z. Other coworkers were working on A,B,C and 1, 2, 3.
Well, don’t you know it – I am now asked to do X,B, Y, 3, 2 . This means that I am running from one part of the shindig to another at different time s of the day (and into tonight). I am not even sure what the A,B,Cs were about or the 1, 2,3s. I’m winging it.
*sigh*
At least it’s Friday.
At least I will get a work out.
Fingers crossed that the shindig will work out o.k.
BTW, nice comic
