What do I do?

Last night I told Rob that I thought we should have a "sit down" so that I could learn a few things. Like how to download pictures from the camera to the computer. And how to connect the video camera to the TV. Also maybe I should have on paper exactly what we have for life insurance and mutual funds. I mean, if something happens to Rob, I want to know what's happening. Because to be honest, I really don't a have a clue. I must admit, I have NO memory of what we have done to cars - if or when got new tires or brakes or when any maintenance is due. So I started thinking that we truly have divided responsibilities but when I REALLY started thinking about it, what the hell do I do???
Rob
technology
finances (and the bills)
cars
house PROBLEMS
dog poop
garbage
snow/lawn

ME
Meals
Coordination of extra curriculurs
House cleaning
Laundry
Purging of crap in the house
Social calender
Flowers
Vacations
Church

YIKES - I am having a hard time thinking about what I really do. I do bring the garbage cans back up or I have the kids do it. I do most of the grocery shopping although Rob does this too. YIKES. I am feeling a bit spoiled. Hold on - there's got to be some big stuff I do.....Okay, I do all DRS appts but Rob does do the dentist as I am a dental phobe. Okay, I also volunteer throughout town with random activities and Rob's only volunteer job is serving beer tent for Oktoberfest.
So anyway, I guess I have drawn the conclusion that I lean on Rob way too much. I should be able to download pictures dammit and I should probably stop asking him to remind me if we have life insurance or not. I think he's told me the answer to that several times but somehow, I just can't keep it straight with all of the social planning I am responsible for!

Flowers? Do you buy them for yourself? Or send them to Rob at work?
