[quote=Anonymous]It was hard. DH was used to having me as his personal concierge and errand girl, and he woukd get rather pissy about it when I would decline to do things I used to do. He also tried to put some of it on his assistant at work, but she pushed back (smart girl). I think the best thing is to decide what you will and won't do, and in particular what you will or won't miss work for, and stick to it. Clarity and boundaries will minimize conflict. No just this once, no just because work is slow, no poor DH is just sooooo busy. Hold him to the agreement, whatever it is. A lot of men want the convenience and unpaid work of a SAHM and the income of a working wife too. [/quote]
