[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what he can go to work and the grocery store and you are envious of this freedom?? No one is going any place fun these days, so chill. U are have it better than most the little one is in daycare and the older one is on zoom all day. Take a walk with your kid at lunch time and just grow up... it all sucks right now.[/quote]

I actually do the grocery store runs after school with the 6 yo.
He's definitely not going anywhere fun without me, but he gets quiet time that I do not get at all.
I think that's what I'm resentful of. He picks up extra shifts outside of his standard work schedule and gets way more alone time while I'm being shadowed all day by a 6 yo and then evenings and weekends by a 2 yo, as well. [/quote]

And then spend the money on himself, it sounds like. It’s not like he’s banking the money for college or the house or some thing, at least that’s what it sounds like[/quote]

No he's not banking the money. Early on in our marriage, we agreed that I was better at saving. But at this point, it's definitely to the extreme. We've split household expenses 60(him)/40(me), but then I put all my extra in our accounts. Even more so now because I have nothing to spend it on. But he bought a new truck in August even though he has no where to go with it. He has two personal vehicles and a work vehicle that he primarily drives. (That's another vent.)[/quote]

OP, at a minimum, put some of the savings in your account, nothing commingled, for your protection. Seriously.[/quote]
