[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should look at this as a wake up call. Clearly you're exhausted and not happy with things. So take some time to think about how you could improve things for yourself going forward. Hire a babysitter while DH is away so you have help?  Arrange for care so you can have a few days away?   Just because hes the breadwinner doesn't mean you should never get a break. Don't feel bad for having him watch his own kids. [/quote]

This. OP, something is not right with your current family dynamics. You say you are exhausted and the thought of being alone with your kids for a week sounds overwhelming. Are they special needs? Do you have any help? Are the logistics of getting them to/ from school/ activities hard? I adore my husband, but it was nice for him to travel some - I had a group of mom friends and we would scope out the mid-week ‘kids-eat-free” places, or hire a sitter to meet friends or do book club. If being alone with your kids for a few days is enough to put you over the edge into irrational resentment mode, I think it’s time for you to make some kind of change in your household to focus on your happiness.
