Well, apparently some folks didn't realize I was joking.
My DH has to bush hog on the big tractor because I'm not capable of operating it and the little tractor (mine) is not big enough for the job.
He has to patch the leak in the coop roof because its not safe for me to be on a ladder. My medical condition throws my balance off.
He only needs to help me move the furniture in the living room so I can shampoo the carpet.
The only imperative thing on my honey-do list is for him to go to the doctor, because I'm concerned about his health.
He'll have plenty of time to do as he pleases.
My DH works a stressful job. Four 10 hour shifts a week. On work days he's not expected to do a dang thing before work, not even fix himself a snack. I do it all for him and gladly, because I understand what his job takes out of him.
On his days off I ask nothing more than he spend some time with HIS puppy and help me by taking the pup out to potty.
I am not beating my own drum nor do I have a henpecked DH.

Am I in the Twilight Zone?

Actually I like to think that I've helped DH learn how to be a kid again. Growing up he had to work on this farm from daylight to dusk and then some. Then he married and spent the next 28 years working two, sometimes three jobs to support his kids and a non-working, non-housecleaning, non-doing anything wife.
Now his kids are grown and I'm encouraging him in his endeavor to not be their ATM anymore.
I'm also encouraging him to retire sooner rather than later. I love it when he's home and underfoot. I'm doing my best to help him remember what its like to be a kid again.
