I kind of thought that's what we had planned when he said he'd do the kids' stuff on his days off. We have one family hobby that we all do, and he and I do it twice a week in the evening. I don't feel like I can take on any more, but it's not an activity where I get a break from the kids or him, and it's an activity that (while I have enjoyed it) was something he wanted to do as a family, and it's important to him in that respect. It's starting to wear me down, though, and I just don't feel like I have anything left in me anymore. Even if I didn't do it, though, I would then have the kids at home with me those two days while he's there, so it certainly wouldn't be any better than going to the class.

Part of me is just so frustrated that he can be so passionate about so many things, to the point of distraction, and there's just nothing in my life that's like that for me. And I don't feel like I have the time or energy to devote to either figuring out what would make me feel like that, or to actually being able to participate in anything else. So it makes it even harder that I feel guilty for being jealous of his passion and enjoyment. And I don't want to take that from him, even a little bit, because it's got to be one of the best things in the world to have that. So how do I figure out how to not resent him?
