To work fulltime, parttime or not at all, cant make up my mind!

So here's the story.

Currently I work 21 hrs as a TA and love the work but its very low pay (£8,22 p/h). DH has a challenging job and from May this year will be overseeing and managing 2 houses being built on top ( our pension if all goes well). He is a very hands on dad and does majority of washing and rest of cleaning is shared. Must say he is bordering OCD and has a much higher standard of cleaning then me.

Next year I can either work fulltime and pay a cleaner ( 12.50 p/h) and occasionally a dog walker ( £10-12 per walk) with the difference in wage.

or

Scale down the hrs to a max of 2.5 days a week, do all cleaning and running of the house&family

or not work at all and take it all on.

WWYD bearing in mind our eldest is starting secondary and youngest in yr 6.
