And when he's home, the routines that I have carefully crafted for my children (well, for Julia...Oliver's not really what I'd call a 'routine' child) go straight out the window.<BR/><BR/>When I had Oliver, Dave took six weeks paternity time. I loved having him home...for the first week.

And go sit by yourself with that coffee and a good book. Go meet up with a friend. Go buy yourself some cute shoes. Just GO! Seriously, it feels so good to do things for yourself, and this is your chance. Even if it doesn't include that conference.

Truth is, it's harder. He interrupts the flow and I get frustrated. It seems things take twice as long to get done because he's in the mix. Would I have it any other way?

I am the spastic "MUST ORGANIZE, MUST CLEAN, MUST MAKE GOOD USE OF TIME OFF" person in our family. <BR/><BR/>This is not a pat on my back. I am a pain in the ass, and I dont know how to relax.

But he's been gone doing army things for 8.5 weeks, comes in after I've done EVERYTHING with the boys, and starts directing the household. Transferring the reigns of "power" over to him has been frustrating, to say the least.<BR/><BR/>Then he went out and bought me two new monitors and a video card to run them. DANG if the frustration doesn't just melt away that quickly! I secretly wonder if he wants the new graphics card to better run his game... ;)Chaotic Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15917862364050793777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-1153967415149426652006-07-26T21:30:00.000-05:002006-07-26T21:30:00.000-05:00Why is it that they are so good at planning what w...Why is it that they are so good at planning what we need to do with our time? I hear it every week, "is that all you're going to do today?" when found sitting reading the paper or online reading blogs. This despite the fact that I work full time, have a house to maintain, three animals to clean up after (you want to talk about hair), and the list goes on and on.<BR/><BR/>And yet despite all this, I love him and couldn't live without him...well maybe just a few weeks would be nice :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-1153964898203522372006-07-26T20:48:00.000-05:002006-07-26T20:48:00.000-05:00I'm jealous too.Good luck with hubby.

I'm not sure if it is because we both expect the other person to "pick up the slack" or what, but it is aggravating that when I am alone with all 4 kids, we can be up and ready by 7:30 and when he is home we can barely get out the door by 12.Radioactive Torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01588217525296865718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17779098.post-1153954081443115182006-07-26T17:48:00.000-05:002006-07-26T17:48:00.000-05:00Yeaaaahhh.
