Newlywed Tip NO. 2
Delegate tasks.
I know this sounds like we're in a business meeting.
Just go with me on this one.
Johnny and I have realized that we are both better at different things.
Grocery shopping? Me. I can find the best deals and Johnny ends up spending $100 and only comes home with three bags of groceries.
Cleaning? Johnny. I'm so lazy when it comes to that, I breeze through cleaning and
barely get anything done. Johnny keeps our house looking awesome and he loves to clean so it's a win/win.
Paying bills? Me. I'm very good about keeping up with things and I make lists and have tons
of planners to remind me. Johnny just gets overwhelmed with it all.
In a marriage, a couple should work together and find what each is better at.
It helps our marriage out so much, and keeps us happy and worry free...most of the time.

This is so true. Sometimes it is hard to figure out who should handle particular tasks but it really does make things easier in the long run.
