[quote=Anonymous]OP you need to look within to find the solution to the problem. It seems to me you are feeling unfulfilled and you are all over the board - one minute feel bad he's tired and then the next enraged.  I am in a similar situation and you need to have some appreciation for how hard he works.  Hire some help and figure out what is going to make you happy.  Being home with kids all day is sole sucking.  But you're choosing that.  You have the resources to fix it.  Most people would be thrilled to have your "problem".   For me adjusting my attitude to have the default just be that he's not home with no expectation that he would be really helped.  Then I was more happily surprised when he was able to get home instead of constantly disappointed. He's setting you up for a great retirement and hopefully long life together after his prime time of surgery passes. 
Instead of being upset he couldn't go on a weekend trip with me, I started going on girls weekends.  Be more independent![/quote]
