This is what I am right now although I have a baby on the way.
I worked for years and by the end of the day, both my husband and I were exhausted and had little time for anything but take-out dinner and falling asleep, only to start another day the same. We were both stressed and weekends found us running errands, cleaning the house, etc...things that I now take care of during the week so that our evenings and weekends are relaxing and stress-free.
My wife and I did the same thing for years when the children were young.
We couldn't afford, at that time, for one of us to not be working.
I worked days and my wife worked evenings. That way we didn't need child care.
We did chores, errands, house cleaning, yard work, etc on the weekends.
It got to the point that we were both exhausted and grumpy much of the time.
Since that time I have a different job paying enough for us to live on with only one person working outside the home. Our children are grown and out of the house.
My wife now takes care of the home. She still works, just not outside the home.
