My DH is away Tuesday to Thursday every week at a minimum. Sometimes this stretches to the weekend and then into the next week making it about 10 days or more.
TBH now I've got into the routine and so have the boys I think that it's tougher on DH than it is on us. Once I adapted I've discovered that really there are benfits to have a part-time DH.
It's much easier keeping the house clean without DH in it. It's not just that he's messy but he also complains when I tidy that it's only a tiny bit messy so it can wait and of course after a few tiny messes are left to wait they become a big mess.
Also there is room in our bed for 3 to sleep comfortably but 4 is a squeeze so when DH is home I end up having to move to a DS's bed if the boys decide to get into our bed.
I don't have to justify watching TV shows like Wife Swap and Next Top Model
The boys really enjoy using skype and they also know how to ring him using my phone so they can stay in touch during the week.
