This is the first time many of us have planned something like this. It is a HUGE undertaking. Quite a few Guild members have/will be taking a vast amount of time out of their personal lives to make this event the best it can be.

We got alot of feedback from our initial call for ideas but our time is limited. It was difficult to pare down the list. But in some cases, we ended up consolidating ideas so we could fit in as many topics as possible.

On a positive note, there's always next year. By then we'll have the benefit of experience as well as the perspectives of the attendees.

If you feel strongly about an idea I encourage you to attend meetings (its a pretty fun group of people) or if work/life gets crazy, at least send an e-mail the Guild's way. That way you know your thoughts will be heard and an open, positive line of communication can be established.

As a SAHM, I LOVE this article. My husband is one of those who comes home and sits on the couch and, for the most part, stays there all night until bed. He won't even put his plate in the sink after dinner. And when he works late, (pretty much every night) there's no notice. When I have a migraine, he says, "Suck it up." (Course there have been times he doesn't feel like getting out of bed, so he'll sleep in and then tell his boss that he was late because I had a migraine.) But if he's got a cold, he's in bed for two days.

At night, he's watching tv and working on his computer. Then, when its time for bed (at least now he has a hand in helping with bedtime, before he wouldn't even do that.) he gets our son all rilled up. (I still have jammy duty and toothbrushing duty. All he has to do is read a book and put the boy in bed but since he decides that's the perfect time to wrestle with our son, our son is often up past 11 p.m. and asking for drinks, snacks, stories and whatnot.

Oh and on the weekends, he sleeps in -- sometimes well past 3 p.m. Because you know, he works so hard! At least today he only slept in until 1. And yesterday he slept until 10 a.m. but took a three hour nap in the afternoon. I have to beg him to spend some one-on-one time with our son.

He does do laundry... That's pretty much his only household chore. He does it about three times a month.

My husband likes to say, "But you get three hours a day of free time while our son is at school. What he doesn't realize is that time is used to run errands, see doctors, make phone calls, schedule stuff and whatnot.

(I picked a real winner, didn't I? Looks like he's the poster boy for how to do this all WRONG. It makes me feel like I'm the only one in the marriage and the only parent. That's pretty much why we are only having one child. I'm sad and very disappointed that he doesn't WANT to be an active part of our family.)
