[ - ] I am a SAHM to 2 children who do not go to school fulltime. I am with them, most days...allday! Why the eff does my 30 something year old husband, need to be reminded EVERY effing night that I deserve a break and need help with bathtime, bedtime prep and then bedtime??? This is after I've spent the day cleaning up after DH, doing his dishes, doing his laundry, putting it away, shuffling HIS children everywhere and then prepping a great dinner. On top of trying keep my children entertained, fed and clean. Where's my ME time during the day? Seriously DH's WTF is wrong with you? These children belong to you too! You are just as important to their well being! Step in a bit, dammit! 8 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

[ - ] Mens watch question: Is Lucien Piccard a 'good' brand? What about Swiss Legend? And Invicta is sort of crappy, yes? To give an idea of dh's taste, most of the time he wears a vintage Rolex which I got him a long time ago when we got engaged. Last year when I wanted to get him something nice but less expensive to wear some days, someone suggested Movado ESQ and I bought one that he loves. I also gave him a skeleton watch by Stuhrling that was less successful. TIA for comments on the above, and other suggestions gratefully received as well. 6 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

[ - ] S/O-Why do SAHMs get so much BS for not working? Neither of my parents stayed home, my dad was an attorney and my mom was a surgeon, so they both had very demanding jobs. I made myself dinner every night starting in MS, nobody ever came to my soccer games to cheer for me, I did a lot of bad things that they never even new about, because they weren't around, I feel I missed out on a lot, because both of my parents were so career oriented. I'm not naive, I know that it doesn't have to be like this for all WOHMs and this isn't the case for most, but for me it was important to stay home with my kids after I had them. I went to a good college, I could go back to work if I wanted to and make a decent living for myself, but it's something I choose not to do. It's what I feel is best for me and my family just as for many people and families it works best for the mom to be a WOHM. My husband makes a good salary which he is able to support our family on and I'm thankful for that. Being a WOHM doesn't mean you don't love your kids or take care of your family and being a SAHM doesn't mean you're too lazy to do anything else and you married DH for his money, ok? We all need to choose what makes us happy in life. 14 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]
