I work for myself...from home. DH works either 3 or 4 night shifts for someone else out of the home.
I have at the moment a big contract which is HARD work. I work from around 9.00am to when DD comes home from school and then I have a break to cook dinner and do homework. We also have a 3 year old in nursery 3 days a week.
I do 90% of the housework. DH goes to work at midnight and gets home at 7.30....he then takes DD to school in the car...and comes home for 9.15....atthis point I think he should go to bed but he fannies about until midday and then gos to bed.
He has been getting up at 3.00 and going to collect DD1 and sometimes DD2 aswell...then coming home,eating with us and palying with kids...then he goes back to bed at around 7.30 and get up at 11.00p for work.
Today he is moaning about collecting DD from school. MY argument is that as I cannot drive I have to get a cab, put makeup and decent clothes on...do my hair etc....AND stop work....all of this makes me loose precious childfree time when I am meant to be working.
AIBU to get him to do the school run? My schedule is not always this busy but lately I have had work coming out of my ears and have managed to triple our income (badly needed as we had debts) I then wrk all evening until around midnight and sometimes later. I still have to cram in some housework too. DH has really slid on his contribution to the house lately.
We are managing to get out of the financial hole now....but stressing over the school run is putting me off work! AIBU??
