[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 418166, member: 4040"] Husband 2.0 (Miss KT's father, aka Useless Boy) sounds eerily similar to your h. Miss KT was about 6 months old, I'd been transferred then promoted, was commuting about three hours a day round trip, working 6 days/60 hours a week, and still doing most of the stuff around the house. UB worked a regular 40 hour week and commuted maybe 10 minutes a day. Everything was on me, everything was my responsibility, everything was my fault. With Hubby, now that he's gone back to work, he tries to pick up the slack as much as he can. But when the chips are down? He's there. In the ER with me Friday night. Fixing the fence when it fell down. Repairing the washer/dishwasher/front door screen. Replacing the leaking shower head. Figuring out why my stupid car overheats when I drive more than two blocks. It's a respect thing, and Shari, you aren't getting the respect you deserve. You're an awesome woman, strong and capable, and I know how hard it is to ask for help. It's even worse when you don't get the help you ask for. Many, many hugs. [/QUOTE]
