End of an Era

When most husbands lose their jobs, they spend time lying on the couch, drinking beer, and catching up on TV shows.  While AJ seems to know all about SMASH and IDOL, and sure knows his way around the couch, he also has a lovely dinner on the table every night, has cleaned the garage, replaced the basement ceiling, installed the backsplash, painted the ceiling, and been at my beck and call since November 1.  He is a reincarnated 50s housewife, without the valium and pearls.  He also has a little robot to clean the floors, just like Judy Jetson.  And takes care of the chickens, changes tires, and shovels snow, babysits and helps the boys, shops and runs errands.    
So on Monday AJ starts his new job, and I'll be on deck for more of the cooking and other stuff.  Which is awesome- I love to cook and do other stuff.  But I'm a little sad that it's the end of an era.
