I am the one who has to do everything in my house. That really ticks me off too!! I rush around muttering to myself angrily. Except, I live alone, so the taskmaster and the laggard are both me. I can't even blame other people. Ugh.

Get into the habit of making lists. For starting suggestions see something like this. For general inspiration, see this. Use the skeleton and modify appropriately to suit your lifestyle and preferences.
Make a master-list for each activity/task from which you can derive sub-lists assigning sub-tasks to everyone.
Get a laminator. For recurring tasks (like kids' bedtime routines) make laminated cards. Get them to check tasks off as they go along, with an erasable marker.
Similarly, make "things I need when I leave the house" lists (for work, for business travel, for kids' activities, for international travel, etc.).

Thank you soo much @sokanasanah .I like this idea and planning to implement it , i have tried this verbally, guess i should put it in writing.That would be effective

If it's just cake cutting and it's in the house, why were you so worked up? Relax OP, your worrying and shouting won't get things done. Anyways, a birthday is meant to be enjoyed, not like this, all worked up and stressed out. You seriously need to slow down. In our house it is the reverse. I am the one who is more relaxed when it comes to such things. The complaint in my house is that I don't plan in advance. For me it's the night schedule. I keep shouting and telling the kids to sleep and their father decides all of a sudden that he needs to teach something to the older one. I have to keep reminding that he needs to sleep immediately.
