The Case for Domestic Husbands

(As opposed to wild ones, you know!)

Himself is still unemployed, for which I am alternately either gnashing my teeth or trying to figure out what I'm going to do when he is no longer unemployed.

The crowning moment came when I was unable to make it to Baby Girl's 6-month well-baby checkup due to a grievous scheduling error. Himself took her, asked all the questions I had and gave me the information the doctor gave him.

For most of our married life, Himself has only worked three days a week, due to the nature of his profession. I had just started getting used to having to go back to getting my own oil changed, gassing my own car, doing all the errands, etc. when he lost his job.

I've quickly re-adapted.

Too bad the Hobbit Hole isn't free, I could get used to this life.
