[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meh you're nicer than me.  My approach to this is that we each get one morning (until about 10am) on the weekend and we can do what we like with it.  If he chooses to sleep in until then that's fine.  If he gets up and works out also fine.  The following morning is mine to do with as I wish.

Could you make this work?[/quote]

I think that is totally reasonable... and it may just result in him going to work out/get ready after she gets up, so she's still stuck in the same position of him getting way more time away than she does and not being available for family activities (but at least she did get a day to sleep in).

What is the end game?  If she wants to sleep in/have her time until 10am, they need to each pick a weekend day.  It's discussed at 10am they switch off and have a time to reasonably expect the person back. If she wants to go places that aren't open until later, ask to sleep in till 8  on  either Saturday or Sunday and that DH gets back from working out by a certain time and she gets to have her time alone ,..either DH takes child with him on errands or is in the house.  I think the challenge will be if she wants family time with everyone during the day every weekend that involves being out and about for extended amounts of time plus wants to have a day to sleep in and there is time for DH to work out in the mornings.  By the time everyone does their thing it would already be 12 or 1, then to eat lunch you aren't getting started till 1pm and one person may feel like just relaxing, not heading out.

Hopefully you guys work it out.[/quote]
