I retired from teaching two years ago and for most of that time it has been a really sore spot with me that I worked for 30 years and retired to become the housekeeper ( he was fantastic about house things before I retired). AND I know it made sense... I now had an extra 8 hours a day that I didn't have before! But my son's gf help me put it in perspective... a clean house, supper cooked and laundry all done is a gift I can give myself and hubby every day.
He still helps on weekends and wraps his arms around me and says, "When I am retired I'll take over the kitchen and you can sew all day long!" C'mon May 1 2013!!
