Hi,

Could you check the grammar of the two sentences below, please?
Quote:
1. Today my new step-mother has made a lot of chores for me.
2. But I've managed to have done all of those chores.


Thanks !

Hi,

Usually you 'do' chores. If someone else tells you to do them, I would say:

'She has given me a lot of chores to do.'
