I really miss being in different places and staying in different hotels. I loved it. and I do get very resentful of DH still flying. He has so much more free time than I do. I don't get to eat in restaurants or travel (mortgage issues)
I do'nt regret our decision. I am home w/our young children and love raising them. but the thought of getting a few night away sounds like heaven.
and like some of the others said, it seems that when I've got a little one puking or coughing, I'll get a call saying something like, "yea, I'm at the beach' and I wanna SCREAM!!! I know this is his job. but I don't know how to turn these feelings off.
Nonrevving is not an option. DH flies for private company now. I would love some advice.

why not use the time more productively and instead of resenting your DH for the perks he has, see the perks you have and enjoy them....
also, start working on your plan of return if you want to be an FA again..and talk to you're DH about taking a day off...set yourself up for a spa day or a night away from the kids. One thing about being a good mom (from listening to all sorts of moms) is that you have to take care of yourself too.
Remember, you chose this route of life, only you can change it if you're not enjoying it.
