I use the checklist and reminder feature in Google Keep. The checklist is nice when I'm running errands or picking up home improvement items from the hardware store. I also like having access to Keep from any device where I'm logged in.

How will you cook if you outlive your partner?

Other tasks around the house are all on me, but I like to take care of them and am more skilled with power tools.
And how will the kids learn that jobs are not limited to a gender? Or that they should learn all the jobs eventually?
(These are rhetorical questions that don’t need to be answered here.)
Despite never having been "allowed" to work on the finances during my marriage, I'm here, learning and managing my own investments rather well, with a credit rating over 800 and a financial plan to carry me through the rest of my life.
I do have "honey do" lists which I can choose to do or ignore or hire out. I have hired out both traditionally male and traditionally female tasks. It works out well.

We keep some of the lists in our mind. It is good practice.
Retired 2019. So far, so good. I want to wake up every morning. But I want to die in my sleep. Just another conundrum. I think the solution might be afternoon naps ;)
