[quote=Anonymous]This thread has gotten funny.  OP here. First off, this post was a VENT. I was feeling down and tired and unappreciated. I'm sure we all feel that way from time to time.  Do I wish my DH would initiate to do more around the house? Yes.  But as a pp said, he prioritizes the stuff that is more important to him and I do what is important to me. He doesn't care much about things being really clean and tidy.  There is plenty of stuff I don't care about and don't give much attention to as well.  We have discussed how when I ask him for help, and he agrees to do something for me, that it is important to me that he gets it done. Just like if he asks me to do something for him, I try to get it done.
Our nights aren't crazy hectic, I do make dinner almost every night except for pizza night once a week (which is due to a late-running after school activity).  I do meal plan each week what I am going to make every night for dinner, then I shop for the ingredients, and then I make the stuff.  I don't go crazy gourmet but I am not making a full meal at 10:00am so that we can reheat it at 5:30, that is strange. I know about the "great shortcuts" of lining pans with foil and using a crockpot, thanks  :roll: .Also, I have 3 children with the youngest still at home mostly/ in part-time preschool.  When she's at school I am volunteering, running errands, cleaning, etc. When she's not in school we aren't sitting at home cooking our meal for next Tuesday.  
I'm not currently WOHM, so of course I expect the bulk of the household duties to fall on me.  I don't ask my husband to help me do household stuff (such as clean up after dinner) every day, maybe it happens once a week. I am not a nag, I came on here to vent so I wouldn't be nagging him ;) .
Anyhow, I'm over it and I don't feel so down anymore, mostly because as this thread went on I've had a few chuckles.  I mean, at least I never found a strange hairbrush in my house!
Thanks all.
