this may sound selfish, but the hell with it.

the wife is trying to sell me on her being home all the time once I get us to the right income. argues she'll have all the chores done, with exception of mowing, and dinner will be on the table when I get home. i just don't see this happening even when the kid gets to preschool age. she'll be worn out from taking care of the kid, and i'll come home to make my dinner, wash my clothes, yada yada ya, and not have time for the kid because of the amount of responsibility I've taken on.

i pray it doesn't happen that way.

I had the same conversation with my wife. Difference is she was a self proclaimed slob when we met and hadn't made much progress in that department when we started talking about kids.

It was rough for me at first, coming home to a filthy house, no dinner prospects in sight, and her handing me the baby when I walk in the door and she collapses on the couch.

To her credit, she has totally become a mom/housewife and is doing an awesome job now. She cooks dinner (never did that before the baby) and does an acceptable job of cleaning(<<neat freak). I still have to help with chores on the weekends and all, but most weeknights I come home to a nice dinner and a smiling mom and little boy.

That right there makes it all worth it.

I stayed at home with the kids for 8 years from 1999-2007. I felt fortunate to be able to do that, but when my littlest one went off to kindergarten I was ready to go back to work and contribute again. Ironically for the first few years my house was spotless. Everybody always commented how clean it was when they would come in to our house and it was always clean so I was always inviting people to come over anytime for dinner and to watch a game.

But then I found the huddle in 04 and everything went to hell around the house.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      C Mc. Gotta love this guy!!

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
