[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the furloughed spouse. My H is excepted. I am starting to feel taken advantage of since he leaves his dirty dishes on the counter every morning when he walks out the door, won't clean the dirty dishes after I make dinner (which has always been our deal, always, whomever doesn't cook cleans), and has stopped taking out the trash. I'm now home and caring all day for our 3 year old. I'm so irritated that he thinks I should just do everything.[/quote] Furloughed fed here, and if you have more free time, you take on more chores. Your H should be appreciative, but yes, you should still be picking up more slack. And what did you do for child care when you were working, and why aren't you doing it now?[/quote] Our childcare is in my office. It's closed. So I am taking on all day childcare, something I never intended to do. I think that's enough of a chore in addition to having taken on all the laundry, cleaning, and yard work. He's still getting home and leaving at the same time, exactly howling does that impact his ability to do the g-d dishes, that he has always done? Since I did all our normal chores during the week, he sat on his ass and played video games while the 3 year old napped today.[/quote] You cant watch a 3 yr old and complete other tasks? Sad[/quote] Wow, your reading comprehension sucks. I am now doing all our laundry, cleaning the house, and doing the yardwork. And it's apparently too much to ask that my spouse puts his breakfast cereal bowl in the dishwasher, that I'm emptying all the time now, rather than leaving it on the table or the counter? I expect more of the 3 year old. She has to bring her dish to the dishwasher.[/quote] Let that shit sit there on the counter. Tomorrow's bowl too. Let it pile up and then ask him to rinse his bowls and place them in the dishwasher when he gets a chance. And dont forget to say "please run the wash when youre done. Thanks hun."[/quote]
