DH is driving me insane. In the spare time I can find during the day, I manage to make enough money to get christmas presents and if I do well a bit more on top of that. While this admittedly isn't a fortune it is a help, and it is extra time I have.
DH keeps complaining that he wants me to make more. However, he gets really pissy when eer I ask him to watch DS in the evening.
Basically he expects me to work while I watch DS, and bring in a full second income. He keeps talking about how other families have 2 full incomes. I point out that in those families they either use daycare or the father watches the kids for several hours in the evening.
This evening I was working on something and DS kept getting into it. It was a hand drawing and DS damaged the paper to the point where I will need to touch up the scanned image in photoshop. I had been hoping to sell the original on etsy as well as putting the scanned image on a t-shirt, but since the paper is damaged I won't be able to sell the original

DH finally when I was about at the end of my rope agreed to watch DS so I could go into another room to work.
When DH finally does "watch" DS, he almost always sticks on a video and feeds him candy to keep him quiet (you can imagine this makes my life more difficult, when DS is too hyper to sleep later and then wants me to also provide enndless videos and candy.) Tonight was no exception. DH then asks me if I'm done yet over and over.
Why doesn't DH get the simple connection between time and money. The more time I have, the more shirts I design, the more shirts sell the more money we make. He just can't have it both ways, either give up some time in the evening, and play with DS (b/c filling DS with candy and showing him videos ends up costing me time later,) or he can stop complaining about how much I bring in.:
