[quote=Anonymous]As the furloughed spouse, I sympathize with your DH. It's getting tough, mentally. I made a long list of household projects that kept getting put off, thinking it would be more than enough to see me through a shutdown, and I'm almost done with the list. It's isolating and really demoralizing to be kicked out, not know when you can go back, have your fiscal future in the hands of people who see you as a pawn at best, and to hear people say "hey, at least you have a job, you lazy parasite - enjoy your paid vacation!" All that said, it's still on your DH to figure out how to not mope. It's not right for him to take it out on you, intentionally or unintentionally. He is a voting adult, and he needs to sack up and figure out how to take care of himself so he doesn't dump it all on you. How, I don't know (since it's different for everyone) but I just wanted to give you some support as a furloughed fed.[/quote]
