If your ‘hubby’ is working 40-60 hours a week, give him a break. He can’t do all your mommy chores. And if you are working from home, it’s easier to time manage.
How many hours are you working?
I can suggest a few things right off the bat;
1. Cook in large portions so that you can freeze and the reheat in the blink of an eye for less time spent at the stove.
2. Eat at the computer.
3. Don’t let dishes pile. A minute now to clean one dish is better than a half hour cleaning a full sink.
4. If your ‘hubby’ is working so hard, you shouldn’t have to freelance. Work toward the degree and cut out the extra time spent at the computer. Use it to spend time with your girls.

You are both working and he should help out when he is home. I have a husband like yours, at one point I was working and he was home with the kids, and he took care of the kids, but not house. We talked about it and he did start helping out more. It was little things, but those little things help too.

So maybe there a few little things that you can ask your husband to take over the responsibility for.
