I'm the only person at my house who

Frequently, when I discover some mundane simple household task that has been ignored and left undone, I think to myself, "apparently, I'm the only one at my house who knows how to (insert task here)."

Today, I was the only one who knows how to change lightbulbs (husband's bathroom -- three were out!) and change the toilet paper roll (daughter's bathroom).

What are the things for which my fellow GC'ers are the only ones with a special skill set?

My boyfriend's the only one in our house who knows how to change lightbulbs. :-/ Well, I know how, but even with a stepladder, I can't reach the ceiling. Sometimes I wonder if I had him move in solely because the house was getting too dark...

I'm the only person at my house who knows how to put dishes in the dishwasher & hand-wash pots/pans/coffee tumblers.

I'm also the only person in my house who knows how to light a candle.

PrettyBoy, all of that stuff takes actual knowledge and skill, if not talent.

Well, my wife would tell you that I think I'm the only one who knows how to load a dishwasher, which is why I come behind her or others and re-load it, or at best fight the urge.

I re-load the dishwasher because I'm apparently the only person in the who actually knows how to load a dishwasher.

I also seem to be the only one who knows how to take the recycling out when the bin is overflowing.
