[quote=Anonymous]I'm getting ready to wrap up my two year stint of staying at home.  Have you discussed these issues with DH?  And not just asking him to finish cleaning th kitchen, but discussed the issue about him not Doing so?

I get that when DH gets home, he's tired from working a full day.  Our evenings are pretty low key. He comes home, plays with DS a little while I finish up dinner.  We eat, DS and I read a couple of books while DH relaxes And then DH does bed time routine.  Sometimes that involves bath but not always.   Then I relax and DH either loads the dishwasher and cleans the kitchen then (although I generally clean as I go along since I hate a messy kitchen while I'm cooking) or he does it later.  I don't care as long as it's done before bed.   As for the other stuff, each day has something that gets cleaned.  Other thank picking up daily messes, just that one thing gets clean. On Saturday or Sunday during nap, DH and I do a much bigger clean.

I don't go out of my way to create a hassle or resentment.  If I decide to cook an elaborate meal using every pan in the cupboard and ingredients all over the place, I don't think I should make DH clean up since the elaborate meal was my choice.  If you're annoyed about the towel, don't do it.  He won't care and you're just allowing yourself to get annoyed by something you are choosing to do.

I feel bad because it does sound like he half asses things, but I think some of this situation has been caused by you[/quote]
