I am so glad my husband was a single dad.

I cook, he cleans dishes & wipes stuff down. I put away dishes. Daily

I do the gardening, it's because I care and the food garden is for cooking - but my ex (despite his overall inability to work) was an incredible organic gardener and I did not touch the yard. We pay someone to mow and edge.

Husband walks the dog and feeds the pets. Takes out the trash. Daily

He washes the towels and sheets. Weekly.

I clean filters and maintain the appliances. Once in a while.

He cleans the windows and washes the cars. Once in a while.

I handle the finances, mostly. I am tech support also. He plans long term and plans vacations for us.

We both work demanding jobs, and have someone come in biweekly to do the real house cleaning.

Basically we both are doing half of what we were before.
