The current situation has brought in a lot of changes in our lifestyle. We actually had to become atmanirbhar to do all the chores of the house with no help from outside; kind of the worst nightmare for any female who has to manage multitude things. I am a Blogger and an Influencer who juggles time between managing my commitments, taking care of my toddler along various household chores. The increased workload frightened me & the looming thoughts in my mind made it feel like a punishment. Initially I struggled & I have no shame in admitting it!
My husband saw this; he has always been my strong support. In view of the changed situation he had to manage his work from home & felt helpless at times for unable to share the responsibilities. For my toddler she was super excited to see her papa at home. With a calm head we tried to work out ways to help each other.
“Change is inevitable in life. You can either resist it and potentially get run over by it, or you can choose to cooperate with it, adapt to it, and learn how to benefit from it. When you embrace change you will begin to see it as an opportunity for growth.” – Jack Canfield
So apt right?
Well, we adapted to the new lifestyle by dividing chores and helping each other. My husband always says these words – “We are in it together, come what may, it’s US.” The initial hiccups were undeniable, we sail through it at one point, right? With God’s grace we had two little hands which made life enjoyable for us.
With loads of cooking experiments in our kitty, I can say without any prejudice that we both love cooking together. Some of our experiments have really turned out so well that we feel like MasterChef’s 😊. We have taken 3-4 hours cooking something and finished it in 15 mins.




Another activity which has become the favourite game in the house is washing clothes, yes you read that right. Anaaya (my daughter) is fascinated with the washing machine for many months now; she used to observe my husband using it. Now, our little game is to put the clothes for washing, while Anaaya watches in excitement. Once, the clothes are done the father-daughter duo will remove the clothes together like a game. While drying the clothes Anaaya will throw the clothes and Papa has to catch it in time before it hits the ground! Trust me, its fun watching both of them.




Its time we truly care for each other and maintain this momentum throughout because one thing the situation has reinforced in all our lives is – Nothing is more precious than life and the presence of your loved ones.

Wow that’s definitely a happy couple goal. It’s important to share and support in everything. It’s really nice to hear and read that more and more couples are coming together and sharing the load.
So cute that your little girl is also helping dad in laundry. Working together makes the load lighter for sure.
True, more helping hands the better 😊
Thanks 😊

Fantastic initiative by Ariel. It makes me very happy whenever I read about partners taking equal responsibility in managing the household.
Yes it’s a great initiative by Ariel 👍
Such a cute way to share the load. Also, I’m glad to see the husband step up his game and help you out where he can!
Thanks 😊
It sounds good . If both husband and wife share the works and give hands to each other in home making, it builds also a strong bond and set an example for other coiples.
Agree with you 💯
This is an important thing to teach children early on- household chores are everyone’s responsibility. Sharetheload is really a great initiative by Ariel.
Yes it’s a great initiative by Ariel 👍
So so cool. That everyone is giving importance to sharing the load. Its so important now especially during these testing times.
Absolutely 👍
This is a beautiful initiative by Ariel.. even my husband also helps me in household chores.
Great to know that 👍
This is such a cute story. I love it how this pandemic are making people come closer and have started caring for each other more.
Thanks so much 😊
Ariel is doing a great job in encouraging equality at home ,I support the cause .
Yeah they have created a good amount of awareness.
Household tasks can be equally divided among each other. It lessens the task and people get to learn so much.
Absolutely 👍
I love sharing the load every day, helping my better half in as many ways as possible. There should be equal distribution of work at home, so no one feels overworked.
Glad you are doing it 👍
There should always be distribution of work. Household is not solely a women’s responsibility.
True, wish more people start understanding it.
Well this is much-needed responsibility which every one should understand on their own… House belong to everyone then responsibilities also belong to everyone
True that 👍
That’s wonderful. I guess now people who use to question “what we do at home the whole day” got an answer to it and the best part is they now help us in sharing the load. My husband though been working throughout the lockdown time, helps me in whatever way he can n yes laundry is still his Load.
True, it’s been an eye opener for many people who think housewives have no work at home.
The lockdown has brought families together and what’s better than sharing the load while everyone is free and at home! Nice post!
Absolutely, I feel it’s a positive change.
It feels nice to read this story of everyone in the household contributing to share the load
Thanks so much 😊
Nice post helping hands liked it
Thanks 😊
Indeed working in tandem is a great way to reinforce partnership during the lockdown.
Yes indeed 😊
