Hello Everyone!

I am currently working from home Mon-Fri, and I am really enjoying the extra time saved from no commute to get house jobs done and have more time to experiment in the kitchen. My husband has been furloughed from his job and has stepped up to help support his father's business and is now working Mon-Sat 8-8 shifts and is obviously tired and on an evening and wanting to relax in front of tv/xbox or unwind alone in the gym. He is also continuing our garden project on a sunday and is working so hard to get it completed for us to enjoy sitting outside in the gorgeous weather.

​

My struggle is that i am missing having social interaction and quality time with anyone and especially together! I feel myself getting upset when he chooses to work in the garden for most of Sunday instead of wanting to relax and spend quality time together, so i help out where i could and made sure the house was tidy etc.. but i really just wanted to have some down-time on the sofa together and chat and go for a walk.

​

How can i ensure that both our needs are met when i know he is working so hard to provide for us? I feel like an idiot for getting upset when he's literally sweating and working hard to provide for me.

Do you have any tips to keep busy and keep your spirits light during these times?
