[quote=Anonymous]OP, my advice is to prioritize a few things that are important to you that he get done. For me, it would be healthy meals. We both work, but I am fine with taking care of a lot of stuff since my DH enjoys cooking healthy, good meals. He is in charge of meal planning and dinner most nights and he delivers. He food shops too (I do the Giant run but he does the more expansive Whole Foods fun which is more of a hassle and where the bulk of our food comes from). He packs lunches on the days I don't work from home. To me, that is just a huge weight off to know we are eating healthy. Like you, we outsource the core housekeeping. I'm fine with doing the more day-to-day (scheduling appointments, registering for activities, etc., never-ending laundry etc., straightening up) as long as he does cooking and the more "longer term" stuff (car stuff, taxes, and yard work/snow removal). Just pick a few things you really want done - a healthy dinner 2x (doesn't have to be complex), stocked up food mid week, whatever. If you can think of a specific plan it might help.[/quote]
