[quote=Anonymous]OP here -- DS is napping and DH is biking.  I have a friend coming over (with kid) to go out for a walk this morning.  Thanks for all the advice to everyone.  I have lots to consider and think about.  I had my DH read through the posts (when it was at about 4 pages long) and we had a good conversation about issues.  I think the solo TV at night really does make me sad, and someone asked if I could imagine spending 90% of our time together as a family.  Honestly, I can't, and that makes me sad, too.  We married, had a child, and moved to the 'burbs in our late 30s, and so our adjustment to a non-urban, non-traveling, more "settled" life is hard for both of us, I think.  The biking is important to DH, and I can't ask him to stop.  It keeps him healthy and sane, and I want to encourage it.  But, I do want him to be more engaged with us as a family when he is home and to spend more time intentionally doing fun activities as a family, rather than just running errands or hanging out with other friends.  Thanks again.[/quote]
