[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like she’s struggling. Keep your work schedule but just check in more via text if you can during the work day.

My husband and I both work from home and he gets more absorbed in phone calls.[b] I never know if he’s coming up for air to run to the bus stop or get our daycare kid[/b] - little texts from him like “wrapping up a call and will do bus pickup today” would help. I get a little frustrated that only I seem to be aware of the time of day with respect to the impact on the kids schedules. I wonder if she is looking for something like that, little indications of whether you’re ending at 5 or running 15 mins late, for example.

My point is there may be a relatively simple fix that doesn’t involve changing your work style.[/quote]

Why on earth do you not have this figured out? Monday, Wednesday, Friday he does bus, Tuesday, Thursday he does daycare. Done. He can figure things out on his days. Stop waiting around for him to text. This is partially on you. [/quote]
