Sorry for the lame title, I didn't know how to explain. Dh and I have been together for 15 years and we have 2 ds. We both work full time, I work from home, he works from an office. Kids are 9 and 13.
We have just been trough a bad patch because he was on a project. When he is on a project, he tend to be very distracted and pretty much only thinking about said project, he also has to work longer hours on some days while I'm picking up the slack for everything else.
This situation regularly happens. Last week I have snapped, I was making dinner and he told me he was going to be late at the time he was supposed to be back. I do pretty much everything that needs to be done in the house from paying the bills to meal planning, food shopping, cooking,holidays organising, everything bar the laundry and ironing his shirts. We are lucky enough to have a cleaner coming every weeks but I still find it hard to cope having to make sure everything is paid, everything is done...it's like I have no headspace for anything else but chores.
I lost it at the beginning of the week and I have said horrible stuff to dh..we have since made up and I'm trying to find solutions to make our lives easier but I'm stuck loss at what to do. I can't work less. I'm feeling horrible I have lost it but I was exhausted. Have you been in my situation ? I hope I don't drip feed too much !
