not tonight, burnt out arguing with my wife the past few hours she finally went to bed. Just to bounce this off you guys here's the scenario she's working full time right now has set days off and we do our best to keep up with the house, im currently on unemployment and trying to get my career on track.
The issue is back when I was working full time and she was at home she didnt really clean up around the house anymore than she does now, but because im at home more im supposed to pick up where she's leaving off. Well I brought up the past situation and how thats irrelavent cause when I got back to work, it'll be both of us not doing anything about it. So I dont know what to do. I love her but I hate picking up the slack for anyone, and she does a good job of not trying to lord it over me. A lot of it comes from her mother ( I think) never lifting a finger around the house and the dad basically being everyones bitch. The guy cooks, cleans and bitches about everything, and the wife does all kinds of stuff away from home, and bitches about everything...I dont want to turn into them

Well if everyone picks up after themselves then that helps a ton. Maybe split the remaining chores... she can do ones that can be done on weekends that would do it for now. When you go to work though you will have odd hours??? |

We figured out the cooking at least, she's going to cook on the 2 days she's off a week, im going to cook on the weekends and we'll have left overs on the 3 days neither of us cooked,or something pre-made like pasta if we're out of other stuff. The dinner planning was a big hurdle, so hopefully the cleaning will fall in line with it.

The guy cooks, cleans and bitches about everything, and the wife does all kinds of stuff away from home, and bitches about everything...I dont want to turn into them Not for nothing man.. but STFU and do the house work. If she's working and your not and your home all day and on joe boards and stuff it's the least you can do to take care of the house. Do the cleaning, dishes, clothes, and take care of the kids. Noone 'likes' house work. Not really but it has to be done. you're an adult and married now. If she's out working, you gotta do your part. Do you expect her to go out and work, then come home and do the house work too, while... you do nadda? That's not an adult relationship. I may sound like I feel kinda strongly on this. Because I do. I'm a house dad. My wife works. I stay home and take care of the house and our kids. I do the cleaning. I keep up the house. Do the laundry. Keep the kids clean. home schooled one till a few months ago. Keep up with their school work, cook dinner 5 times out of 7. Why? Because she goes to work and busts her ass to bring home money. She shouldn't have to "Work two jobs" if I'm not "Technically" working one. Is running a house a full job? Especially with two kids, especially if one is home schooled? Yes. But still. I'm doing my part. She's doing hers. You don't have to be a Bitch to put in your half in the relationship. I'm 6'3" 220lbs and noone that sees me EVER mistakes me for a bitch. I'm very opinionated. Stubborn and can even be an asshole. Being a house dad if your wife is working isn't a bad thing. She's your WIFE. Not your Girlfriend. You're half of a whole. Not 60% not 70%, not 80%. HALF... 50%. Buck up. Do your part. She's not bying you GI joes to paint and stuff because you look pretty sitting on the couch. lol

and yes? lol....random and doesnt happen. We're just overwhelmed her parents were letting her keep alot of her extra things at their house in her old room, but now that the kids are gone they are doing a remodel so suddenly we have TONS of stuff EVERYWHERE that we have to go through, organize and or toss. Sucks cause im tripping on the crap but I cant toss it cause its not mine. Sorry for venting here, but thanks for listening anyways

Morning troops. *Yawns* Way too earily for me to be up, and I've actually been up since 7am. Kid had a freak out this morning. So I'm in a pretty foul mood. How is everyone else?
