Basic cleaning stuff. My dad did have a dishwasher when I was in high school, so that wasn't bad. He also gave vacuuming to my sister more because the sound really messed with me.

(IDK if that has to do with my autism or not but it used to really freak me out and spike my anxiety for some reason most of the time. Later on I took to listening to headphones for vacuuming when it still got to me, but we don't have any carpets in this house because whoever had it before pulled up the ones that were here.)

I had to do dusting instead of vacuum, and which was much more work but didn't bother me. Sis complained once and dad asked me to vacuum one week, but that week sis mysteriously didn't do any of her chores. Tried to say I'd be in trouble for her not doing them, and I refused because dad had it written out and knew who was supposed to do what. I pointed out I'd even vacuumed ffs.

Never complained about vacuuming again and everything went back to normal. I think she genuinely thought I was being lazy and then looked at what dusting entailed and realized it was actually the biggest chore on the list.

Of course we cleaned out own rooms.

Sweeping kitchen/bathroom was usually split. Lawn was split between all of us.

When I lived with my mom after that I had my own room/laundry to do, cooking, taking care of siblings, and dishes. I got dishes less over time, in part because I did more cooking and in part because of taking care of a baby.
