Mine comes to me almost every morning, "I see some more yard work you can be doing."

I love this.

I mean, my wife is a rocket and gets a lot done. I give her tons of credit for advancing our family. When she wants something she pushes to get it.
Whether it's to move house, better our situation, get documentation, getting stuff done for our kids schooling, medical stuff etc...
That's on top of doing the normal every day crap of dealing with kids/the house etc...

 I do a good amount around the house (not enough or correctly for her...but that's another post with pictures) but every so often she throws out all she does to what "little" i do...(she hasn't held a full time job in 10 years...part time here or there at times but mostly her job has been a stay at home mom) and it is not easy, definetly will never down plays what she does....the problem I have is...what I do  is 100% down played.

Running operations for a company and having 150+ people directly/indirectly need me for something or being responsible for all the production and people problem crap I  have to deal with is not cake.

Usually..these bickerings are in a mild joking manner, sometimes a bit more serious...i guess that means they are all serious?
So, at times when she bickers about me not cleaning the bathroom the right way or...she did XYZ and i haven't done anything.
I walk over to the light switch and i turn the light on/off....and I say something like...HOLY CRAP!!! This is amazing. It still works!?!?!?! We have electricity....oh..that's right I sent the payment in last week...I was worried for a minute. Or I will look out the window and say...hon, it's still there..."what is?" your infinti....the bank didn't reposes it. Probably has something to do with the money I sent Bank of America last week.

I never keep score, even though the above seems like i do...but this is YEARS of culmination.
I'm not a...i make all the money, get me my slippers and make me a sammich person...but also, you don't get to make me feel like me working/supporting us for 15 years shold be taken for granted when I never have said 1 word about anything she has done/not done. Worked/not worked etc..

Aren't they also trading germs and potentially COVID?  Who is going to sanitize these 500-1000 piece puzzles?

They usually let the puzzle sit for a couple of days b4 starting on it.........but the risk is no different than going to the store
I'll suggest that she do the puzzle with a mask and gloves      (and let you know how that goes)

 
I stole these from Facebook:

My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in bed.
I turned to her and said, 'Do you want to have Sex?'
'No,' she answered.
I then said, 'Is that your final answer?'

... She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, 'Yes..'
So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."

And that's when the fight started...

________________________________

I took my wife to a restaurant.

The waiter, for some reason, took my order first.

"I'll have the rump steak, rare, please."
He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?"
"Nah, she can order for herself."

And that's when the fight started.....

_____________________________

My wife and I were sitting at a table at her high school
reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his
drink as he sat alone at a nearby table.

I asked her, "Do you know him?"
"Yes", she sighed,
"He's my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking
right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he
hasn't been sober since."

"My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on
celebrating that long?"

And then the fight started...

________________________________

When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.
But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the shed, the boat,
making beer.. Always something more important to me.

Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.
When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing
scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into
the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again
I handed her a toothbrush.

I said, "When you finish cutting the
grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."

The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.

_____________________________

My wife sat down next to me as I was flipping channels.
She asked, "What's on TV?"
I said, "Dust."

And then the fight started...

________________________________

Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the
boat up to the van and proceeded to back out into a torrential
downpour. The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather
would be bad all day.

I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back;
now with a different anticipation,
and whispered, "The weather out there is terrible."

My loving wife of 5 years replied, "And, can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?"

And that's how the fight started...

_______________________________

My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary.
She said, "I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 150 in about 3 seconds."

I bought her a bathroom scale.

And then the fight started......

______________________________

After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply
for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me

for my driver's License to verify my age. I looked in my pockets

and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that

I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.

The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'.
So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.

She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application.

When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.

She said, 'You should have dropped
your pants. You might have gotten disability too.'

And then the fight started...

________________________________

My wife was standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror.

She was not happy with what she saw and said to me,
"I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you
to pay me a compliment.'

I replied, "Your eyesight's damn near perfect."

And then the fight started........

 
so today has been a rough one. At least we both recognize that we aren't used to all of this togetherness.  I get the sense that a lot of people are getting to the breaking point.
