[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a SAHM to a 2 year old. It's hard. All day I'm. Cleaning up messes. But I enjoy staying home and my dh prefers it. I love my dh but he is always making messes. As soon as he comes home from work the messes begin. He leaves his shoes out, leaves lights on, leaves cabinet door opens, opens stuff out and leaves packaging on the floor, puts stuff in the freezer without closing the packaging. His job is to do the dishes but he constantly forgets to load all the fishes, doesn't pre-rinse them good enough for them to be clean, etc.

I know this seems small but it's driving me crazy. I have to be home all day, and for once I'd like to wake up in the morning to order before my toddler rips everything apart. Or not have to spend every moment of my life cleaning up after someone. Is this something stupid to divorce over? I've talked dh about it a million times. [/quote]

I'm so sorry you're overwhelmed at this stage in your life, but one thing is certain, this too shall pass. Times like this is when patience pays off. A friend told me once that we can't win every battle, the important thing is to win the war! I've applied this many times in my life, it's helped to avoid conflict after conflict, after all, I'm not perfect either. I heard also that begining a 10 min. clean up routine for everyone at the end of the day REALLY helps. Everyone has to go everywhere they've been that day and pick up after themselves. This could be a wonderful routine to start with your young family. Hang in there!!! I'll be praying for you ;0)[/quote]
