Interesting Article of the Day

Not sure if it makes much sense, but I have some thoughts about this:

Does Busier Job Equal Happier Marriage?

Text is http://blogs.wsj.com/juggle/2011/06/06/does-busier-job-equal-happier-marriage/ and Link is
http://blogs.wsj.com/juggle/2011/06/06/does-busier-job-equal...

"Working moms tend to be happier with their marriages when they are shouldering heavy workloads on the job"

"However, when dads’ on-the-job workloads rise, both they and their wives tend to become less satisfied with their marriages"

This doesn't help my reservations about my spouse returning to the workforce...

Gotta run, but will comment more later.

    Of course it could also be that busier workloads just make people too tired to complain... I dunno, I tend to take these things with a grain of salt.

    Or when things are awful at work, it doesn't seem so bad at home....

    I think I would have to agree with LuckyRobin...too tired to complain. I know this year I would come home and be too tired to do anything but sit. My husband has come to realize I wasn't giving him the silent treatment, I was just too tired to talk.

    Too tired to complain. I noticed with a friend who works her "marriage" seems better. But then again when she isn't working it sucks.
