"A few months to replenish"? He's been staying home for EIGHT YEARS. He should have been doing this stuff the whole time, but now he should get time to replenish, during which time OP will continue to do these things?

I work 50 hours a week. My husband works 60 hours a week. I do the grocery shopping. He does the laundry. If one of us is having a particularly long day or week, the other one picks up the slack. Neither one of us would ever pull the dinner crap that the OP's husband pulled. If DH and the kids ate all the dinner before I got home for whatever reason, he would make something for me (even if it was just a grilled cheese sandwich) as soon as I got home. [/quote]

You are totally missing the point.  Neither you nor your husband had FT care of your children when they were young.  I'm not talking about laundry and groceries.  I'm talking about the exhausting, unrelenting work of FT care for young people.  You have never done that.  Neither has your husband.  You went to work and got loads of adult time and solo time.  It is not the same thing.  [/quote]
