It's not supposed to be you helping her, it's supposed to be that both of you are mutual partners in managing the household.  That means you take the initiative sometimes, rather than just doing what she tells you to like an intern or something.[/quote]

Wow, right you are. In my defense, she is a SAHM and pretty particular about the house and kids.[/quote]

You need to break out of the pattern of half-assedly doing a little and giving up when she's "particular".  She has her systems and ways of doing things for a reason, and you should try to comprehend it.  A lot of men don't understand that efficiently running a household requires a lot of carefully designed patterns and systems that interlock with each other.  Discuss with her to pick an appropriate area to master.  Learn the system and take responsibility.  Do it well for long enough that she trusts you with it.  Then she will feel more respected and also have more time to relax.
