He's Home... now what?

So, TS has been home a month tomorrow and it's been strange needless to say. I had surgery two days before he got home and was in a wheelchair for the first two and a half weeks. Plus, my mom was here when he got home (hey, someone had to help me in and out of bed), she was a godsend. Anyhow, back to the honey. SO, he's been home and other than him complaining about being a house-husband, things are going well. Everyone around me seems to be getting pregnant, and well, that bothers me. Not because of their lack of parenting skills, but because of my sheer jealousy. I know we are in a crunch time right now. I am getting older and I don't want to me an old mom, good lord, I'm already going to bed at 10 on Fridays, but I don't want to rush with him just coming home. Anyhow, enough baby talk.

He is bored out of his mind, and I'm sorry for that, you have a ton of leave and it's just dumb to sell it all back unless you are a technician and well, he's not. He doesn't have a job, and says he wants one, but the good ones, the ADOS ones and AGR ones are not up for a few weeks when the new budget gets approved. So, he can't do that either. He is however, going crazy, sitting at home, doing laundry, cooking dinner, cleaning up the house. Funny part about it though is why does it take men SO MUCH LONGER to do what I can get done in a couple hours. It takes him the entire day to do two loads of laundry, empty and god forbid, load, a dishwasher, and maybe vaccuum. REALLY? I guess Men really don't know how to multi-task, or don't want to. :-) Well, that's all I got right now... I'm off to take a bath... rest the foot. Which is doing better by the way, still looks pretty funky. Once I figure out how to upload pictures, I will get on that.

Men are incapable of multi-tasking. My dh gets jealous of me when I sit and watch a movie with him and still write/read emails on my laptop. I can not help that I have so many things to do I can't just waste 2 hours doing only one thing! Really!!!

I can not agree with you more. TS doesn't understand why I get upset because in 5 hours on a Saturday, I can do 6 loads of laundry, clean the kitchen, mop the floors, do homework, and straighten the house. But in 8 hours, he can't manage to empty the dishwasher, do two loads of laundry and take something out of the freezer for dinner... ahhh wedded bliss. Love my man though. lol
