My H looked after the kids for me last week while I went out with friends and when I came home he had drunk two of the beers in the fridge and was watching my cable. Didn't thank me for the beers or comment on them (very different from what he usually drinks because they actually belong to a friend who hangs out at my house a lot), nor did he fold the kids' laundry or anything else. Apparently "babysitting" his children is all he's called to do.

I say, live in the moment, appreciate the chores, and then leave it behind. Your H is a confused fella. (Possibly trying to shore up his narrative of what a great supportive husband he's been...)

How're you doing??
