SAHMs (and SAHDs) how much does your spouse help out around the house?...


Recommended Posts

Dh is spending more time at home now that his job has changed, so yes, he makes a meal when he feels like it now and then.

 

For the last 2 years he worked 4 to 5 days on the other side of the state. When he was home, he was on a tractor or combine. During those times the house, the kids, the farm, and everything else were my responsibility unless he did something over the phone--calling about a broken septic system or whatever.

 

And yes, it bothers me, but there are no good options. Whether I am right or not, I think this is his home as well as mine, and that we should share the responsibilities of caring for the home and the family. I understand that I, being the one at home, is going to do most of it most of the time. My dd does do a lot around the home, so it is not as though everything depends upon me. Maybe that is enough of a break. I really appreciate that she is willing to help.

 

I was sick today, and so was my dd. Dh made both lunch and dinner!!!!! :ohmy: Maybe now that he is working here a few days each week, he'll be around to do a few things--at least until planting season starts:001_smile:. That would be very nice.
